While air fryer preheats, pat chicken thighs dry. Sprinkle with salt and garlic powder on all sides.
Once preheated, add chicken thighs to wire basket leaving room between each chicken thigh to help cook evenly throughout.
Turn temperature up to 400 degrees F and time up to 18 minutes. Once time is up and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, let rest for a couple minutes, then top with black pepper before slicing!
Notes
*I cut out the bone myself, but you can also ask your butcher to do this for you!
