手順
Place chicken thighs, one at a time, between 2 sheets of parchment paper and flatten with a meat mallet.
Flattening to an even thickness ensures uniform cooking and crispiness.📌
Combine bread crumbs, salt, and ground black pepper in a shallow bowl. Place flour in a separate shallow bowl and beaten egg in a third shallow bowl. Dip chicken thighs first in flour, then in beaten egg. Finally, coat with seasoned bread crumbs.
Use one hand for wet ingredients and the other for dry to keep your hands clean.📌
Preheat an air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Preheating is crucial for achieving a crispy exterior.📌
Place breaded chicken thighs in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching; work in batches if necessary. Mist with avocado oil and cook for 6 minutes. Flip each chicken thigh, mist with avocado oil, and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes.
Do not overcrowd the basket to allow proper air circulation, which is key for crispiness.📌
