Step 1

Debone the chicken thighs by carefully making small slits around the bone with a sharp knife, until it can be easily removed. If you're using boneless chicken thighs, skip this step.

Step 2

Transfer chicken thighs into a large bowl. Add marinade ingredients into the bowl and massage into chicken until coated. Marinate for 15 minutes or overnight in the fridge.

Step 3

Lightly spray the air fryer basket with vegetable oil or cooking spray or line the base of the basket with air fryer parchment paper.

Step 4

Place chicken thighs in the basket in a flat single layer and skin side up. You will need to air fry in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.

Step 5

Air fry the chicken for 8-9 minutes at 375 degrees F or until an internal temperature is 165 F with a digital instant read thermometer and skin is browned. No need to flip halfway. Note: the cooking time will range per air fryer so monitor the cooking process.

Step 6

Remove the cooked chicken and slice it into pieces. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
