Tempero Baiano Chicken - Air-fried Brazillian Chicken

Tempero Baiano is a spice blend originating from the northern Brazilian state of Bahia. The spice blend has bold, earthy and exotic flavours that add zest to meat, seafood, legumes, vegetables, stews and many traditional Brazilian recipes. This Brazillian chicken recipe comes together in a flash, making it perfect for the last minute guests. You can cook this either in your airfryer or oven.

1 tsp Ground cumin
1 tsp Dried oregano
1 tsp Dried parsley
1 tsp Ground turmeric
½ tsp Ground coriander
¾ tsp Sea salt
½ tsp Freshly milled black pepper
½ tsp Cayenne pepper
3 Limes, juiced
2 tbsp Olive oil
1 kg Chicken wings
Fresh parsley, to garnish
Limes, to garnish

In a large bowl, add all the spices with the lime juice and olive oil. Add in chicken wings and turn them, coating well with the marinade. Allow the chicken to marinate for 30 minutes or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator if time allows.
Pat the drumsticks dry with paper towels and arrange them, skin side up in the air fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 200C/400F for 20-25 minutes, turning the chicken wings halfway through the cooking time. Alternatively, place them on a wire rack and bake in the oven at 200C/400F for 25 minutes, flipping the chicken wings halfway through the cooking time. Garnish with parsley and lime wedges. Enjoy!
