Ingredients

  • 500 g skinless & boneless chicken thighs
  • 2 tsp garlic paste (or 4 cloves garlic, minced)
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 Tbsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 15 pcs cherry tomatoes
  • 1 medium red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1 small red onion (quartered)

Instructions

  1. Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix.

  2. Add the chicken thighs to your air fryer basket (you may need to do this in batches), and air fry for 8 minutes at 200 C. Flip the chicken thighs and air fry the other side for another 8 minutes. Note: The duration of air-frying depends on the size of the chicken thighs.

  3. When chicken thighs are cooked, add the veggies to the air fryer basket. Air fry for 5-6 minutes or until veggies are cooked, shaking the basket halfway through.
  4. Combine the cooked chicken and veggies in a bowl, and also take that oil from your air fryer basket. It would add a nice flavor to the dish.

  5. You can enjoy this as is or with rice or bread. Yum! Note: You can also enjoy this with kalamata olives & feta cheese for added deliciousness.

Recipe Notes

  • The duration of air-frying depends on the size of the chicken thighs.
  • You can also enjoy this with kalamata olives & feta cheese for added deliciousness. Add it just before serving. 
  • Instead of chicken thighs, you can use chicken breasts.
