Method
- Marinate the chicken. In a large bowl or zip-lock bag, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, honey, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the fridge for more flavour.6 chicken thighs , ¼ cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F
- Air fry the chicken. Place the chicken thighs skin side down in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 375°F for 12 minutes. Flip and cook for another 15 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and crispy and the internal temperature reads 165°F.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Skin side down first. This renders the fat under the skin before the outside caramelizes. You get more even browning and a crispier result when you flip.
- Don't skip the dark soy. It is the only reason the color looks this good. Without it, the chicken is still delicious but looks a bit pale. Dark soy adds almost no extra saltiness, just color and a tiny bit of depth.
