These Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs come out so succulent and tasty in the air fryer! When you think of air fryers you naturally think of air fryer french fries or air fryer chicken nuggets and recipes with breading. This chicken thigh recipe uses boneless chicken thighs, no breading at all.
The air fryer does so much more than it’s fundamentally an oven on steroids! These thighs come out so juicy, they are ideal over rice with steamed veggies like bok choy or snap peas.
