| smoky BBQ | ½-1 tsp |

Preparation for Air fryer chicken
- To ensure that the chicken thighs are evenly covered with oil, give them a quick toss in the pan.
- It will be a very light coating; however, if you desire a thicker coating, you may double the amount of flour and seasoning that you use.
- First, combine the flour and the seasoning; then, toss the chicken thighs in the mixture. Place the chicken in a single layer on the frying tray of an air fryer that does not have a paddle and set the timer for thirty-five minutes.
- To determine whether or not the thighs are fully cooked, peel the flesh away from the bone on the underside of one of them.
- The flesh should come away easily, and there should be no pink meat behind. If necessary, continue cooking for another five to ten minutes.
- The skin ought to have developed bubbles and became crisp, and any excess fat that was on the chicken ought to have flowed down into the base of the fryer (you can discard this).
- If you leave the chicken in the fryer after it has finished cooking, the steam will cause the skin to get soggy again.
