Air fryer Chicken Thighs

These air fryer chicken thighs are so flavourful and delicious. They are skinless yet get beautifully browned and stay juicy inside.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. chicken thighs about 500 gm.
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. onion powder
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • ¾ tsp. paprika
  • ½ tsp. pepper
  • ½ tsp. italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp. salt

Directions:

  1. Take skinless bone-in chicken thighs in a bowl. Dry them with paper towels so that they are completely dry.
  2. Mix together oil, lemon juice, seasonings and salt together.
  3. Add to the chicken thighs and ensure that they are coated evenly on both sides with all the oil and seasonings.
  4. Zero-oil: Add some chicken broth instead of oil and follow the rest of the recipe. Your chicken thighs may not be as browned if not using oil.
  5. Preheat air fryer at 200C or 390F for 4 minutes.
  6. Lay chicken thighs so that they don’t overlap. I could fit 6 medium sized thighs in mine.
  7. Now air fry at 200C or 390F for about 16 minutes or till they are nicely browned outside and well cooked inside.
  8. If you have a meat thermometer, you can check the inside temperature. If it touches 165F it is done.
  9. You can flip the thighs midway during air frying if you like.
  10. You deliciously browned air fried chicken thighs are done. These were a huge hit at my place.
