Description

Deliciously crispy and juicy bone-in chicken thighs cooked in the air fryer, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs (skin-on for extra crispiness)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • to taste fresh herbs (optional) (such as thyme or rosemary)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Add the bone-in chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Place the chicken thighs in the air fryer basket in a single layer, skin side up.
  5. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is crispy.
  6. If desired, sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

  • Cooking times may vary depending on the size of the chicken thighs.
  • For extra crispiness, you can increase the cooking time by a few minutes but keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
