Step 1

Preheat air fryer to 375 °F.

Step 2

Trim excess fat from chicken thighs.

Step 3

To a food processor, add three cups of pretzels. Pulse until pretzels turn into a fine powder (5-10 seconds). Pour pretzel crumbs onto a plate.

Step 4

To a small mixing bowl, add 2 eggs. Beat until yoke and whites are combined and there are no remaining streaks.

Step 5

Lay the chicken out flat on a plastic cutting board or plate. Add 2 slices of ham and 1 slice of Swiss cheese to each chicken thigh. Roll the chicken so the ham and the cheese are surrounded. Secure using toothpicks. Repeat process with 4 remaining chicken thighs.

Step 6

Dunk the chicken thighs in the egg mixture until the outside is completely coated. Immediately roll the chicken in the pretzel crumbs until a thin layer coats the outside. Repeat process with 4 remaining chicken thighs.

Step 7

Place chicken on the air fryer tray and lightly spray with cooking oil. Bake in the air fryer for 26- 30 minutes, until chicken is completely cooked through.

Step 8

Remove chicken from air fryer. Remove toothpicks from chicken. Serve on top of a bed of arugula or spinach for added presentation.
