Description

Juicy and tender Kalbi Chicken Legs marinated in a sweet and savory sauce, cooked to golden perfection in an air fryer.


Ingredients

  • 6 chicken quarters
  • 1/2 apple
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup mirin
  • 2 inches of ginger
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • 2 stalks of green onion
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sweetener
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • Sesame seeds (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: Combine the apple, soy sauce, mirin, ginger, garlic, green onion, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sweetener, and pepper in a blender. Blend until smooth.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken legs in a bowl or zip-top bag, pour the marinade over, and massage gently. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
