Equipment

  • 1 air fryer

Ingredients

  • 5 medium chicken thighs bone-in, skin on

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1/4 cup chicken broth or water
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together water, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, and garlic powder. (or use 1 cup bottled teriyaki sauce)
  • Place chicken in the marinade. We used thighs but other pieces could be used, timing may change depending on thickness of meat. Marinate for 30 minutes or even over night.
  • Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees. Place chicken in a greased air fryer basket. Air fry for 16 minutes at 350 degrees, flipping halfway through.
  • Continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
