These Air Fryer Chicken Thighs are crispy, juicy and deliciously seasoned. This easy recipe includes cook times for both bone-in and boneless chicken thighs. Serve them with a few simple side dishes for a meal the whole family will love.

Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs (or 6-8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat air fryer to 400° F for 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Pat the chicken thighs dry. Rub them with the olive oil.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, combine the seasonings: paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Rub seasonings over chicken thighs.

  4. 4

    Cook chicken in a single layer in the air fryer. (Cook in batches if needed.) Cook chicken thighs at 400° F, skin side down, in the air fryer for 12 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side for 7-12 minutes, until cooked to an internal temperature of 165° F. (If using boneless, skinless chicken thighs, there is no need to flip them. Boneless chicken thighs will take 11-15 minutes total to cook, depending on their size.)
