Air Fryer Ga Roti - Vietnamese Roasted Chicken

I always make this Roasted Chicken for dinner. This is one of my favorite. It is very tasty. I can eat 2 leg quarter with rice. I usually double my recipe when I make this chicken. My husband loves this chicken aside from the other chicken that I also make all the time. Mama has a similar recipe but she use coco water. For the Air fryer, I try to avoid food with a lot of liquid. I will make the Instant Pot version of this next time.
