Here Is How To Make Air Fryer Turkey Thighs
If you really want crispy skin, start by preheating the air fryer, set the temperature to 380 degrees F, air fryer setting for 5 minutes.
Dry off the turkey things with a paper towel, which will really help you get some crispy skin.
While the air fryer is preheating, add your spices to a small mixing bowl, then rub them onto the turkey thighs. Set them into the preheated air fryer basket (either side), set the timer for 12 minutes, and then flip the turkey thighs and air fry for another 12-15 minutes.
HOW LONG DO YOU COOK A TURKEY THIGH IN AN AIR FRYER?
Start by placing the turkey thighs into the air fryer basket in a single layer and make sure the turkey thighs do not overlap. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to cook your thighs in batches.
You can tell when you are done cooking pork chops when they have reached an internal temperature of 175 degrees F.
HOW LONG DO YOU AIR FRY TURKEY THIGHS?
The actual time for your air fryer turkey thighs will depend on the thickness of your thighs.
CAN I AIR FRY FROZEN TURKEY THIGHS?
Yes, although the cooking time will be increased. I would season them as they started to defrost.

These turkey thighs were very delicious I did add water to the bottom of the air fryer so the Turkey would be juicy as I took the skin off and removed all fat. I will definitely be making this again thank you.
On a side note I made garlic bok choy and steamed carrots to go with it and it paired perfectly.
