Air fryer chicken thighs are then
cooked for 15-20 minutes. I also
spray them with oil and turn
them over halfway through the
cooking time. The best
temperature is 400°F (200°C).
If you are not sure that your
airfryer chicken thighs are done
(or any air fryer chicken

food thermometer. Stick it in
and if it reads 165°F (75°C) you
can take them out and serve.

CAN YOU STACK CHICKEN
THIGHS IN AN AIR FRYER?
Unfortunately, you can’t. The
important thing to remember
when cooking in an air fryer is
that the food you put in should
have room around it so that the
air can circulate and cook it
evenly.

For this reason, you might need
to cook your dinner/snack or
appetizers in 2 or more batches
when you have a large crowd to
feed.
A 5.8-quart (5.5-liter) air fryer is
able to cook 4-5 chicken thighs
(when making these chicken
thighs in air fryer I used 4 pieces
but, could have fitted one more)
or 3-4 chicken breasts,
depending on their size.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS:
How long does it take to cook
chicken thighs in an air fryer?
Cooking time will depend on the
type of your air fryer as well as
chicken thighs (larger will take
longer than smaller). Count with
about 20 minutes (if you want
to have a crispy skin, cook for
longer).
Do you have to flip the
chicken in air fryer?
That depends. You don’t need
to flip if it has skin on (make
sure to cook it skin-side up) but
if it doesn’t, then I do
recommend turning it over
around half-way through the
cooking process.
What to make with chicken
thighs?
I like serving these air fryer
chicken thighs with wedge
salad and parmesan roasted
potatoes.
But you can serve them with
anything you like: rice, orzo
salad, barley risotto,…

EXPERT TIPS
Like I’ve already mentioned,
it’s important that the air
fryer is not overcrowded
with food so it can cook
evenly.
I always pre-heat my air-
fryer for 2 minutes by
setting the time and
temperature manually. You
may have a model that does
the preheating by pressing a
button or maybe it’s not
required. Always read the
manual for the best cooking
results.
Seasoning – this is a simple
recipe for air fryer chicken
thighs using only a few
ingredients. For this reason,
I do not recommend
omitting any of the
ingredients.
···
If you are looking for air fryer
dessert recipes, I have two for
you: hand pies and cinnamon
rolls.
I also like ham & jalapeno air
fryer pinwheels that are made
with puff pastry so if you are
planning on entertaining at
home, you could give it a go. We
love those!
