These juicy marinated Air Fryer Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. They're smothered with a sweet Asian glaze and then topped with crunchy sesame seeds and green onions.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, garlic, ketchup, parsley, and oregano; whisk until completely incorporated. Reserve 1/4-cup of the marinade in a small bowl and set aside for later. Pour the remaining marinade into a large bowl.
Add chicken to the marinade; cover and marinate for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours. Refrigerate the chicken if you are not planning to cook it within 2 hours.
Preheat the air fryer to 400˚F.
Remove chicken from marinade and transfer 4 chicken thighs to the air fryer; you’ll have to cook in batches. Cook for 8 minutes; flip the chicken over and continue to cook for 6 more minutes. Remove and set aside.
Continue with the rest of the chicken.
In the meantime, pour the reserved sauce into a small pan or pot and cook over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes or until it thickens and is slightly reduced.
Remove the chicken from the air fryer and transfer to a plate. Brush the warm glaze over the chicken thighs.
Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions, and serve.
