What temperature should I set my air fryer to cook chicken leg quarters without burning the sugar in my marinade? Since my marinade contains brown sugar and I’ve heard that sugar can burn at 350 degrees, I’d like advice on the optimal cooking temperature and duration. Thanks!

To air fry chicken leg quarters with a marinade that contains brown sugar, you can set the air fryer to a temperature of around 320°F (160°C). This lower temperature helps prevent the sugar from burning while still cooking the chicken evenly.
For chicken leg quarters, air fry them at 320°F for about 35 to 45 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even cooking. Always check that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches at least 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption. Adjust the cooking time based on your air fryer model, as they can vary in performance. Enjoy your meal!
