1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the chicken thighs and rub it in to coat all sides.
Arrange the chicken thighs in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they do not overlap.
Cook the chicken thighs in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 9 minutes.
Flip the chicken thighs over and continue cooking for an additional 9 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the outside is crispy and golden.
Remove the chicken thighs from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
