Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.
- Combine the seasoning mix in a small bowl.
- Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Place them in a medium bowl and toss with olive oil. Sprinkle both sides generously with seasoning.
- Place chicken thighs in the basket, skin-side down, and cook for 12 minutes. Flip them over and cook for an additional 8-10 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F.
- Transfer the chicken to a place and rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Cook time can vary slightly based on the size of chicken thighs (and brand of Air Fryer). Ensure internal chicken temp reaches 165°F.
- For frozen chicken thighs: Cook at 360°F for 25-28 minutes.
- For boneless skinless chicken thighs: Use 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs, and cook at 400°F for 12 to 14 minutes, flipping the chicken after 6 minutes.
- Preheat the air fryer for best results.
- Starting the thighs skin-side down and flipping them makes for crisp skin without burning the seasonings.
