Ingredients & VariationsCHICKEN The air fryer takes chicken from so-so to amazing! Skin on or skin off, boneless or bone-in, choose pieces that are of a relative size so they cook at the same rate. This recipe is for boneless thighs, if your thighs are bone-in, you’ll need to change the cooking time and add the sauce later so it doesn’t burn. SAUCE Choose your sauce! Use teriyaki as per the recipe or even a favorite stir fry sauce or hoisin; all will make a delicious sticky glaze. Choose a teriyaki sauce that is thick, like the consistency of bbq sauce. We add garlic for a boost of flavor but feel free to use 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder in place or a dash of cayenne pepper for a little heat. Teriyaki sauce is salty so I don’t find the need to add extra salt but you can season the chicken with pepper and your favorites spices.
