Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
- Rub the chicken with oil.
- In a small bowl, mix paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Sprinkle the seasoning all over the chicken and rub it in well.
- Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 minutes.
- Place the chicken thighs in the basket skin-side down.
- Air fry at 380°F (193°C) for 12 minutes.
- Flip the chicken and cook for another 10–15 minutes, until the skin is crispy and the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) inside.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Tip
For extra crispy skin, make sure the chicken is very dry before seasoning and avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.
