These Spicy Thai Chicken Thighs are marinated in a flavorful mixture of Thai red curry paste, soy sauce, and other aromatic ingredients, then air-fried to perfection. They are juicy, crispy, and bursting with spicy Thai flavors.
Ingredients: 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. 2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste. 1 tablespoon soy sauce. 1 tablespoon fish sauce. 1 tablespoon honey. 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger. 1 teaspoon minced garlic. 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes adjust to taste. 1 lime, juiced. 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Salt and pepper to taste. Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish.
Instructions: To make the marinade, put Thai red curry paste, soy sauce, fish sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, lime juice, and vegetable oil in a bowl. Put the chicken thighs in a shallow dish or a plastic bag that can be closed again, and pour the marinade over them. Put the dish or bag in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for the best taste. For 5 minutes, heat your air fryer up to 375F 190C. Take the chicken thighs out of the marinade and put them in the air fryer basket that has already been heated. Let any extra marinade drip off. Flip the chicken thighs over halfway through the 2530 minute air fry time, or until they are cooked all the way through and the skin is crispy. Different models of air fryers have different cooking times, so use a meat thermometer to make sure the meat reaches 165F 74C inside. After the chicken thighs are done, take them out of the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes. Add fresh cilantro leaves on top and serve hot. Have fun with your Thai chicken thighs.
