For golden, flavourful chicken legs, look no further than your air fryer. Generously coat the meat in a smoky shawarma seasoning and cook skin-side down for ultimate crispiness, flipping them over for the final 10 minutes. Serve with a vibrant salad of cranberries, couscous, and broccoli – including the often-overlooked stalks for extra flavour and to prevent waste.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
