Ingredients
Protein
- 4 pieces bone-in or boneless chicken thighs (about 1.5–2 lbs)
Sauce
- 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Seasoning & Oil
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Oil for greasing the air fryer basket
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- In a bowl, mix together sweet chili sauce, minced garlic, soy sauce, and black pepper.
- Coat the chicken thighs in the marinade and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Lightly grease the air fryer basket with oil.
Cooking
- Place the chicken thighs in the basket and cook for 18–20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes
Pat chicken dry before marinating for better glaze adherence. Bone-in thighs may take longer; ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F. Store leftovers in airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
