Notes
- It's best to season the thighs halfway through cooking time, as the seasoning sticks to thawed meat better
- Use this air fryer recipe to cook as many chicken thighs as you would like
- You might find it helpful to check the internal temperature of the chicken thighs after cooking. A cooking thermometer should read at least 180 degrees at the thickest point of the meat
