Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 8 chicken thighs boneless, skinless (32 oz)
  • ¼ cup soy sauce low sodium
  • 2½ TBSP balsamic vinegar
  • 1 TBSP honey
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp sriracha sauce optional
  • 1 tsp ginger fresh
  • 1 scallion sliced, for garnish

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the balsamic, soy sauce, honey, garlic, sriracha, and ginger. Combine well.
  • Pour half of the marinade (roughly ¼ cup) into a large bowl with the chicken thighs. Make sure the meat is covered and marinate it for at least 2 hours; it is best to marinate overnight.
  • Reserve the remaining marinade for later.
  • Add the chicken thighs to the air fryer basket and cook for 15 minutes at 400℉, turning them over halfway through. Continue to cook for an additional time until the chicken thighs are cooked through in the center.
  • Place the remaining sauce in a small pot and cook over medium heat until it reduces slightly and begins to thicken.
  • To serve, pair the chicken with brown rice and broccoli or bok choy, and drizzle with more sauce and top with the scallions.
