Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 10 oz boneless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Make the marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together gochujang, honey, sesame oil, fish sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Set aside 2 tablespoons of this sauce for dipping later.
  • Marinate the chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and coat thoroughly in the sauce. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes—this gives the flavors time to really shine.
  • Air fry to perfection: Place the marinated chicken on your air fryer rack. Cook at 400°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through. The result? Crispy edges, juicy inside, and a sticky, spicy-sweet glaze.
  • Serve and garnish: Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired, and pair with your favorite sides—think steamed edamame, roasted veggies, or a simple grain bowl.
