Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 4-5 lb. whole chicken
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper more or less
- nonstick spray
Instructions
- Combine all of the spices in a bowl.
- If you haven’t already, remove the giblets and inner parts of the chicken. Then, pat the chicken dry as best you can with a paper towel.
- Use your hands to rub the spice mixture all over the chicken, making sure it’s coated.
- Spray your air fryer basket with nonstick spray, then place the seasoned chicken into it breast-side down.
- Cook the chicken at 360° F for 50 minutes. Use tongs to carefully flip it over and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until the juices run clear and the skin is crispy. NOTE: cook times vary slightly depending on the size of chicken you’re using; always check the internal temperature.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and wait 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
