Equipment

  • Air-Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs about 1½ pounds
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ tablespoon olive oil equals 1½ teaspoons
  • ½ tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Before seasoning the chicken, I like to use some kitchen scissors and trim up the fat and veins to clean up the chicken. This step is optional and a matter of preference.
  • Mix the spices together in a small bowl.
  • Place the chicken thighs in a medium sized bowl and pat them dry with paper towels. Then add in the spices, oil and lemon juice.
  • Mix until the chicken is evenly coated on both sides.
  • Spray the basket or tray of your air fryer with oil and place the chicken thighs in it. Do not overcrowd the basket. You want a single layer of chicken on the bottom.
  • Air fry at 400 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for about 20 minutes (or until the chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit), flipping halfway.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • How long it takes to cook the chicken depends on the size of the chicken thighs. Larger thighs may require additional time.
  • Chicken that is safe to consume should reach a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
