Description

With this simple recipe, you'll achieve tender, succulent chicken thighs with a sweet and savory peach glaze that's bound to impress. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures created by your air fryer!

Ingredients 

  • 4 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 large peaches, peeled and mashed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt , to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed ripe peaches, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until you have a smooth and well-incorporated peach glaze.
  • Place the chicken thighs in a separate bowl or zip-top bag and pour half of the peach glaze over them. Ensure that the chicken thighs are evenly coated with the glaze. Let them marinate for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  • Place the marinated chicken thighs skin-side down in the preheated air fryer basket, leaving some space between them for even cooking. Cook for about 12-15 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
  • After the initial cooking time, carefully flip the chicken thighs over so that they are skin-side up. Brush the remaining peach glaze generously over the top of each thigh.
  • Return the chicken thighs to the air fryer and continue cooking for an additional 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is crispy and golden brown. Cooking times may vary depending on the size of your chicken thighs and your specific air fryer model.
  • Remove the Peach Chicken Thighs from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring tender and juicy meat. Serve your delicious Air Fryer Peach Chicken Thighs hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
