Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Meat Thermometer

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Bone in, skin on chicken thighs trimmed of excess fat and skin
  • 0.5 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 380F for 5 minutes. After pre-heating, spray with cooking spray, if desired.
  • Add the chicken thighs to a large zip-top bag or a bowl with a lid. Top with the kosher salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano and onion powder. Shake to coat.
  • Remove from the bag and place the chicken thighs in the air fryer, skin side down, for 12 minutes.
  • Turn your chicken thighs skin side up and cook for 10-15 minutes more. If you would like your chicken thighs super crispy, cook for 4 minutes increments to get your desired crispness.
  • The crispy air fryer chicken thighs are done when an internal meat thermometer reads 165F inserted into the thickest part of the thigh. Serve.
