In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice, black pepper, salt, basil, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder. Reserve half.
Place the chicken drumsticks in a large bowl and pour half of the lemon pepper mixture over them. Make sure that each drumstick is coated evenly.Allow them to marinate for 30 minutes.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
Place the coated drumsticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure that they are not touching each other.
Cook for 25 minutes, flipping the drumsticks once halfway through and using the lemon and herb sauce that wasn't used to marinate the chicken to brush on top.
Once the drumsticks are fully cooked to an internal temperature of 165F, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious and crispy lemon pepper drumsticks!
