How to Make It
Step 1
Add the yogurt, oil, turmeric, paprika, garam masala, garlic powder, ginger, cumin, lemon juice, zest, salt and pepper to a small bowl. Mix together until smooth and well combined. Add the chicken thighs to a large bowl.
Step 2
Spoon the yogurt marinade over the chicken pieces. Use your hands to rub the dressing liberally all over the thighs so that they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Step 3
Lightly oil the basket of your air fryer. Arrange the thighs side by side in the air fryer basket. Set the basket in the air fryer and set the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Set the timer for 20 minutes.
Step 4
After this time, turn the chicken pieces over and increase the temperature to 375 degrees. Set the timer for a further 15 minutes. Check that the chicken is completely cooked through and the skin is crisp and golden. Cook for longer if needed to ensure the chicken is cooked through.
