Equipment
  • air fryer
Ingredients
  • 6 Bone-In Skin-On Chicken Thighs
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 cup Honey
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 3 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • Sesame Seeds, for garnish
  • Fresh Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season generously on both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (195°C). Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in the basket in a single layer.
  • Air fry for 10 minutes, then flip skin-side up and cook for another 10 to 12 minutes until the skin is deeply golden and crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • While the chicken cooks, combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, butter, and red pepper flakes in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the butter melts and the sauce is fragrant and slightly thickened.
  • Brush the honey garlic sauce generously over the crispy chicken thighs during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh parsley and serve.
