Personally, I think the air fryer is the best invention besides a home coffee maker. I use mine just about everyday! I love to make burgers, pork tenderloin, crispy pork chops, and even crispy Brussels sprouts. My method for crispy chicken thigh skinI start by pre-heating the air fryer before I spray with cooking spray. I do this only when I want my food to be really crispy. I make sure the chicken thighs are patted dry and any excess skin is cut away. Then I mix the chicken thighs with all of the seasonings. Now we can place the chicken thighs in the air fryer basket skin side down. I do this so the skin can start to render the fat without browning the skin too much. I also do this with my Air fryer whole chicken recipe. My Air fryer has a 6 quart basket so 4 chicken thighs fit perfectly. If your air fryer is smaller you would need to cook these in batches. After the chicken thighs cook skin side down, we can flip them over and continue to cook them until the skin is nice and crispy and the internal temperature is 165F. Making this a complete mealI like to serve these air fryer chicken thighs with cauliflower Mac and cheese, keto green beans with bacon, or a broccoli salad.
