  • ½ tsp mixed herbs
  • ½ tsp garlic granules optional
  • 4 chicken thighs bone in
  • 1 tsp olive oil

  • Step 2
  • Put in the basket of your air fryer and cook, skin-side down, for 10 mins at 180C. Turn over and cook for a further 10-15 mins until cooked through and the skin is crispy. To check they are cooked, pierce the thickest part of the thigh with a knife to see if the juices run clear. Remove from the air fryer immediately to stop the skin from softening.
