Ingredients

  • 2 pounds bone in skin on chicken thighs pat very dry (see note 1)
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Whisk the spices together in a small bowl. While the air fryer is preheating, toss the chicken with the spices until they are well-coated.
  • Place the chicken skin side down in the preheated air fryer. Cook for 12 minutes. Flip them and continue cooking for an additional 12 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (see note).
  • Serve and enjoy.

Notes

  1. Use a paper towel to pat the chicken thighs dry. This will allow the chicken crisp up better.
  2. Using an instant read meat thermometer is a great to ensure that you cook your chicken perfectly. You can find the one I love here: https://amzn.to/3XAYirn
