Marinated Air fryer chicken thighs

18 Sep

These air fryer chicken thighs are so flavorful, juicy and delicious. They pair really well with tattooed chef cauliflower fried rice. I served them tonight with my roasted turmeric cauliflower.

Ingredients:

6 boneless skinless chicken thighs

Marinade:

6 scallions , rinsed and roots cut off

1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce

3 whole cloves of garlic

2 tbsp olive oil

1/2 tsp sesame oil

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp fish sauce

3 tbsp rice wine vinegar

1 tsp dry ground ginger

1 tsp salt

2 tsp pepper

Directions:

·     Blend all marinade ingredients in your blender
or food processor until thick and smooth. I used my smoothie blender.

·      Remove chicken thighs from packaging. Use your
hands to open each one up so your marinade can get to the whole surface.

·      Pour marinade into a ziplock freezer bag and add
chicken thighs. Refrigerate 6-24 hrs.

·      Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees.

·      Place as many thighs in as you can with them
spread open but not overlapping. I was able to cook 4 at a time.

·      Cook for 12 min, then flip each one and cook an
additional 8 minutes or until internal temp reaches 165 degrees
