Air Fryer Bone-In Chicken Thighs

Air Fryer bone-in chicken thighs have the most tender meat and ultra crispy skin, with hardly any hands-on effort at all!

📝 Ingredients

• 1 lb. chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon thyme

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Mix the salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and thyme together in a small dish. Take a few napkins or paper towels and pat each chicken thigh dry on all sides. Drizzle the chicken with the oil, then sprinkle with the seasoning, turning the chicken thighs until they’re coated on all sides.
2. 2Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (194°C). Once it’s preheated, spray the air fryer basket with a little oil to prevent the chicken from sticking. Carefully set the pieces of chicken into the air fryer skin side up, with a little room between each piece. Close the air fryer and cook the chicken for 18-20 minutes. Close to the end of cook time, open the air fryer basket and use a meat thermometer to check if the internal temperature of the meat has reached 165°F (74°C).Once the chicken is done, carefully remove the chicken and set it on a plate to serve.
