Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil

- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F.
- While air fryer preheats, dry chicken thighs with paper towels and place in a large bowl. Add olive oil and juice from ½ a lemon and combine until coated.
- In a small bowl, add smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Add seasoning mix to chicken thighs and stir together until chicken thighs are coated.
- Add chicken thighs to air fryer basket. Cook at 380 degrees F for 12 minutes. Flip, then cook an additional 6-8 minutes.

Notes
- Cooking times may vary based on the size of your chicken thighs. I highly recommend using a meat thermometer to make sure chicken thighs are safely cooked. Chicken thighs should be cooked to a temperature of at least 165 degrees F (I usually prefer the texture when I cook mine to at least 175 degrees F).
- You can either use 4 or 6 chicken thighs to make this recipe and keep all the other measurements the same.
- This recipe is easy to customize with your favorite spices and seasonings!
