Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 - 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
6 tablespoons salted or unsalted butter
6 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer or convection oven to 400 degrees F.
- If using a convection oven, line a pan with foil, tear off another equal size piece and crumple it up. Then unfold and place it in the pan. This will stop the chicken from steaming in its own juices. If using an air fryer, skip to the next step.
- Pat chicken dry and place each piece, bottom side up.
- Place all sauce ingredients in small saucepan and heat and whisk to melt butter and to combine ingredients.
- Brush onto the chicken and bake for ten minutes. Flip, brush the other side and bake for ten more minutes.
- Remove and pour juices into the sauce.
- Heat the sauce to a boil and cook a few minutes to thicken.
- Brush the chicken again and broil just long enough to brow/caramelize. If using an air fryer, skip this step as it should already be brown.
- Serve with the thickened sauce over each piece and on the side.
