Air Fryer chicken thighs with crispy skin are the perfect easy lunch or dinner! These bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are delicious and can be customized with different spices and herbs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried herbs (such as tarragon, thyme, herbs de provence, or oregano)
Instructions
- Step: In a large bowl, add olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and dried herbs. Stir to combine.
- Step: Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Trim any excess fat.
- Step: Add the chicken thighs to the bowl of oil and spices. Toss to combine, rubbing oil mixture into all surfaces of the chicken thighs.
- Step: Preheat air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F. After preheating, add chicken thighs to the air fryer basket, skin side down.
- Step: Cook for 10 minutes at 400 degrees F. Flip each chicken thigh, then cook for another 10-15 minutes until chicken thighs are cooked through (at least 165 degrees internal temperature, but ideally higher than 175 degrees F).
Notes
Cooking time will depend on the size of your chicken thighs. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F, though 175 degrees F is recommended for better texture. Cooking times may vary by air fryer model.
