Instructions
1. Prep the chicken
Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels to help them crisp.
Rub with olive oil.
2. Season
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.
