Ingredients
- 2 ½ pounds chicken thighs about 6 chicken thighs boneless, skinless
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Remove any excess fat on the thighs.
- Place the chicken thighs in a large mixing bowl
- Pour the oil and mix to coat the thighs.
- Sprinkle the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and ground pepper over the raw chicken. Mix so all the chicken thighs are coated with spices. You can use a spatula, but I have found out that using my hands works a lot better and faster.
- Place the chicken thighs in the basket of the air fryer, in a single layer. They can touch, but they will shrink as they cook. The number of chicken thighs you can put in the air fryer will depend on its size.
- Air fry on a manual setting at 380 degrees for 8 minutes.
- Flip the chicken thighs and roast for an additional 8 minutes or until the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees.
