Ingredients

  • 4 skin-on bone-in chicken thighs
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a small bowl combine all the rub ingredients.
  3. Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and brush the skin-side of each piece with olive oil. Place chicken thighs skin-side down in a single layer on a plate.
  4. Sprinkle rub mixture evenly over the chicken thighs. Turn the thighs over and evenly sprinkle remaining seasoning mixture on top. Place chicken thighs in the air fryer basket in a single layer, skin-side up.
  5. Cook in an air fryer 18-22 minutes or until the juices run clean and the center reads 185-190 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes

  • Technically the internal temperature needs to be 165 degrees F, but I find that there are no bloody spots around the bones if you cook it a little longer and the chicken falls off the bone tender and juicy.
