Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons less-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 piece ginger grated
  • 4 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and garlic.
  • Transfer 1/2 of the sauce to another bowl and set aside.
  • Add the chicken to the remaining sauce and marinate for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • When ready to cook, remove the chicken from the marinade and arrange the pieces in the air fryer basket so they aren’t overlapping.
  • Cook at 380°F (195°C) for 20-25 mins, until the internal temperature reaches 165ºF (75°C), flipping halfway through. Brush both sides of the chicken with the leftover marinade twice during cooking, then discard any remaining marinade.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve over rice with the second half of the sauce you reserved.

Notes

  • Cook time will depend greatly on the size of your chicken thighs.
  • If you use boneless chicken thighs, they will cook much faster. Start with 10 minutes, then check the internal temperature.
