method of making
Let me show you how to make Air Fryer Chicken in less than 25 minutes!
Hi everyone!
and today I’m going to show you just how easy it is to make this incredible chicken in the air fryer.
I’m talking golden, crispy skin and then juicy, tender insides.
This chicken recipe might just become your new go-to on busy weeknights.
It is incredible.
All right, let me show you how to make it. For this recipe, you’re going to need a total of four bone in skin on chicken thighs.
Now before you get started, you want to make sure to pat them dry with a paper towel.

Just pat it as best as you can.
The top, the sides, the bottom, the whole thing.
Because the less moisture that’s in the air fryer, the better the food is going to crisp up.
So think about it this way.
If there’s more moisture, it creates like a steamy kind of setting.
And that’s going to take away from that crispiness.
It’s going to be kind of soggy it’s not going to be good.
So try to pat it dry as best as you can.
Now place your chicken thighs into a medium sized bowl and then drizzle one tablespoon of olive oil on top.
Then grab some tongs and then just start tossing all that chicken together until it’s evenly coated in that oil and then set it aside.
And now we can get started on the spice mixture.

In a small bowl, you want to add 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 teaspoons of paprika, 3 teaspoons of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, and 1 teaspoon of brown sugar.
Now use a fork to mix everything together until it’s all evenly combined.
And then sprinkle on that seasoning mixture right over the chicken.
Then grab your tongs again and then mix everything together until the chicken is fully coated in that delicious seasoning.
Now you can cook the chicken right away.
Or if you want it to taste extra delicious, you can go ahead and cover it with some plastic wrap and then pop it in the fridge overnight.
And it’s going to just bring out more flavor.
As that meat marinates in that spice mixture, it’s going to be extra good.
So if you want to go the extra mile, I recommend it, but you don’t have to.

Now, before you cook the chicken, you want to preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit for about three minutes.
Once it’s preheated, you want to place the chicken inside, skin side down first. And then you want to Cook it for ten minutes.
And then you want to open it up and then flip it over and cook for another eight minutes.
And if you’re ever unsure if your chicken is fully cooked or not, the best way to check is by inserting a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the meat.
And it should read at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Once your chicken is all done you want to serve it with some mashed potatoes and some veggies on the side and enjoy.
Now you guys know just how easy this chicken recipe is.
You guys this has become my go-to method for making chicken thighs.

It is so simple, so quick and not nearly as messy as cooking on the cooktop and it’s incredibly delicious.
And the best part about this recipe is that it uses such simple ingredients that you can really just go wild with the variations.
You can make it spicier by adding cayenne or sweeten it up a little more with some extra brown sugar or even smother on some barbecue sauce.
The possibilities are endless.
I hope you guys enjoyed watching this.
Thank you
