Here’s a safe and simple way to make Air Fryer Chicken Feet 🍗—crispy on the outside and tender inside.
Air Fryer Chicken Feet
Ingredients (Serves 2–3)
- 1 lb chicken feet
- 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1–2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp paprika or chili powder (optional, for spice)
- Optional garnish: sesame seeds, chopped green onions
Instructions
1. Prepare chicken feet
- Wash chicken feet thoroughly and trim the nails with kitchen scissors.
- Blanch in boiling water for 5 minutes to clean and tenderize. Drain and pat dry.
2. Marinate
- In a bowl, mix garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, pepper, and paprika.
- Toss chicken feet in the marinade and let sit 30 minutes to 1 hour for flavor.
3. Air fry
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Arrange chicken feet in a single layer in the basket.
- Air fry 15–20 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden brown and slightly crispy.
4. Serve
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired. Serve hot as a snack or appetizer.
Tips
- Marinating longer (2–3 hours) adds more flavor.
- You can add a touch of honey or hoisin sauce for a sweeter glaze.
- For extra crispiness, brush lightly with oil before air frying.
If you want, I can also give a Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Feet with Garlic Butter Glaze version—it’s more indulgent and very flavorful.
