Sobrecoxas de frango na air fryer

Ingredientes

• 2 pounds (4 to 6) chicken thighs
• 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 lemon, (zested and juiced (3 tablespoons juice))
• 2 garlic cloves, (grated)
• 1 tablespoon ras el hanout (or spice blend of your choice)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Mix marinade. Combine olive oil, lemon zest and juice, garlic, ras el hanout, salt, and pepper in a bowl large enough to accommodate the chicken.

2. 2

   Marinate chicken thighs. Pat each chicken thigh dry on both sides. One at a time, add the chicken thighs to the marinade, turning to coat each one. Marinate the chicken for at least 15 minutes, and up to a day ahead. If marinating for longer than 15 minutes, cover and refrigerate.

3. 3

   Get ready. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for 5 minutes.

4. 4

   Air fry chicken thighs. Place the chicken thighs in the air fryer basket skin side down in a single layer, leaving space between each one. Cook chicken thighs until beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Flip and cook for another 6 to 8 minutes until well browned all over and the internal temperature registers 165°F using an instant read thermometer.

5. 5

   Crisp the skin. If you like, increase temperature to 400°F and air fry for another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chicken thighs from the air fryer.

6. 6

   Rest and serve. Rest the chicken thighs for 5 minutes before serving.
