If using chicken breast make sure to cut them in half to make 4 thinner breast.
Take the inngredients and mix together in a small bowl or ziplock bag and give it a good stir. Then, add the chicken and toss to coat each thigh/breast and let marinate in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour or up to overnight.
****Pro Tip: marinate these and then freeze them so they are ready to go. This will help make dinner planning a little easier!
Pre-heat your air fryer to 375 degrees.
Place the chicken thighs in a single layer or your air fryer pan/basket.
If you have been following me, then you know I am OBSESSED with the Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer- this one is kind of like a toaster oven. So, make sure you place the pan without the holes in it on the middle rack (to catch the drippings) and cook the chicken on the top rack.
Once the air fryer is ready, place the chicken on the top rack and cook for 5 minutes before flipping. I then like to spray a little olive oil on top so the chicken will be a nice and browned.
Continue cooking the chicken for another 6-10 minutes or until you reach an internal temperature or 165 degrees. You will know the chicken is almost done when it starts to brown.
****Pro Tip: Chicken thighs retain moisture better than chicken breast, so they don't tend to dry out as fast.....so it's kind of hard to mess them up!
