Chicken thighs in an air fryer
preparation Time
- 35 minutes in total.
- 4 servings are produced.
Ingredients
- Two pounds of skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about four pieces)
- One tablespoon of vegetable oil
- Half a tablespoon of salt
- Half a teaspoon of black pepper, ground
- One teaspoon of powdered garlic
- One teaspoon of paprika
- Half a teaspoon of Italian seasoning
- One teaspoon of optional soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce
- One teaspoon of vinegar with balsamic
DIRECTIONS
- Put the chicken thighs in a big zip lock bag that can be sealed. Add all the spices and oil. Close the bag and give it a good shake. Make sure the bag is securely sealed after pressing the air out of it. The chicken can alternatively be marinated in a bowl covered with plastic cling wrap. Press the spice around the chicken to coat it. Let it marinade for at least an hour or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375F for approximately five minutes before cooking. Put the thighs in the air fryer basket in a single layer, skin side up, and cook for 25 to 28 minutes, or until the skin is as golden brown and crispy as you like. A meat thermometer should register 165F as the interior temperature of the chicken.
- Serve right away with your preferred side dish or vegetables, such as air-fried broccoli, mashed potatoes, or garlic green beans.
