Notes

Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs: Keep the fat! It provides flavor and juiciness! Also, there are very minimum carbs in this dish so the fat will satiate you!

Air Fryer or Oven: Both ways are delicious, but the air fryer beat out the oven in this round! Browned to perfection and maximum flavor. Here’s a link to my air fryer. It’s nice and big and SQUARE! A round air fryer is tough to fill. Check this out: https://amzn.to/35OXo0m

Marinade: This is quite possibly the best marinade I’ve ever made! Follow my directions exactly and this will become your go to marinade. Marinate your chicken at least two hours.
