For a classic and tangy flavor, try this buttermilk ranch air fryer fried chicken recipe. Start by marinating the chicken pieces in a mixture of buttermilk, ranch seasoning, and spices for at least 4 hours or overnight. In a separate bowl, combine flour, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper to create the coating. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray the basket with cooking oil. Dip each chicken piece into the flour mixture, making sure to coat it evenly. Place the chicken in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd it. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy. Serve hot with a side of ranch dressing for a classic and flavorful twist on fried chicken.
