Pat chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and brush skins with olive oil. Place chicken thighs, skin side down, in a single layer on a plate. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
Combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the seasoning mixture evenly over thighs. Turn thighs over and evenly sprinkle with remaining seasoning. Arrange thighs, skin side up, in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
Cook in the preheated air fryer until thighs are brown and the juices run clear, about 18 minutes. An instant read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
