Instructions
1. Prep the chicken
Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels to help them crisp.
Rub with olive oil.
2. Season
Mix all spices in a bowl.
Coat the chicken thighs evenly on all sides.
3. Air fry
Place thighs in the air fryer basket, skin side up, without overlapping.
Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 18–22 minutes:
-
Flip halfway for boneless thighs.
-
For bone-in, keep skin side up the entire time for maximum crispiness.
Cook until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. Rest and serve
Let rest 3 minutes before serving to keep juices inside.
