What type of chicken should you use in the air fryer for Asian chicken?
If you are making chicken in the air fryer, I highly suggest boneless, skinless chicken thighs. This by far the best cut of chicken for air fryer chicken. Even for air fried chicken, chicken thighs are the go-to in our household.
Chicken thighs tend to be juicier and have more flavor as opposed to chicken breasts. I’ve also found that in the air fryer, chicken breast can dry out much more quickly than chicken thighs. Be sure to grab this Coupon Code: 10% Off and FREE Diced Chicken!

Generally speaking, chicken takes about 20 minutes on 390 degrees in an air fryer to cook; however, that can always vary. Chicken must be at least 165 degrees to be fully cooked.
That means having a quick read thermometer on hand is vital to be sure your chicken is well done.
How do you make gluten-free Asian Air Fryer Chicken?
Each of my recipes is gluten-free. The key is to use gluten-free soy sauce when making the sauce for the chicken, as well as adapting any other ingredients as necessary.
I also use gluten-free cornstarch to coat the chicken too.
