Air Fryer Teriyaki Chicken
Make juicy, flavorful air fryer chicken teriyaki with a sweet glaze. It's a perfect meal idea for busy weeknights that's easy to customize.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs boneless skinless
- 4 tablespoons teriyaki glaze bottled or homemade (do not use marinade)
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame seeds optional
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer at 400°F and set timer for 20 minutes.
- Place chicken in the fryer basket or tray and cook for 5 minutes.
- Flip chicken over. Air fry for another 5 minutes.
- Brush on half of the teriyaki glaze. Continue air frying for 5 minutes.
- Flip chicken over again and glaze with the remaining glaze. Air fry for 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired. Air fry for 2 minutes.
- Place thighs on a cutting board and slice into bite-sized pieces.
Notes
Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before air frying. However, it's best to let it marinated for a few hours.
Boneless chicken breasts can be used instead of thighs.
To cook faster, cut the chicken into bite-sized chunks.
