Ninja Foodi Chicken Legs

Ingredients:
6-7 medium chicken legs, thawed or frozen
1 cup water or chicken broth
2 Tblsp. olive oil or sauce of your choice
Salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation:
1. Turn on the Ninja Foodi, and press the PRESSURE button.

2. Put cook & crisp plate into cooking pot.

3. Coat chicken legs with oil or sauce, and season as desired.

4. Pour water into the Foodi.

5. Place chicken legs onto cook & crisp plate, being careful not to overcrowd the plate. 
NOTE: If you want to cook more than will fit on the plate, add the broil rack above the cook & crisp plate, then place additional chicken legs on that. 

6. Place the pressure lid on the Ninja Foodi, and lock the lid in place.

7. Turn the pressure valve to SEAL.

8. Turn on the Ninja Foodie, and press the PRESSURE button.

9. Set the TIME to 12 minutes, then press START (leave temperature on HIGH).

10. The Ninja Foodi will take several minutes to pressurize, then will cook for 12 minutes. Once the 12 minutes of cooking is completed, open the pressure valve to release the remaining pressure.

11. Once the lid unlocks, use tongs to turn chicken legs (carefully, as they will be tender), and coat with additional sauce or seasonings, as needed. You do not need to empty the water.
NOTE: If you used the broil rack, remove the chicken that was on the rack to a plate, and remove the broil rack. You will need to complete the next steps with just a single layer of chicken on the cook & crisp plate.

12. Close the crisping lid, press the AIR CRISP button, and set the temperature to 400 for 6 minutes, and press the START button.

13. After 6 minutes, open the lid, and use tongs to turn the chicken legs over.

14. Repeat step 12 a second time -- air crisp the chicken legs for 6 more minutes.

15. Once the second set of 6 minutes of crisping is done, verify that the chicken legs are crisp enough for your liking. If not, repeat for several minutes until they reach desired crispness, then serve.

16. If there are additional chicken legs that you removed from the broil rack, repeat steps 12-15 with those.
