Method

  1. 1
    • chicken thigh 800 g
    • gochujang 3 tbsp
    • soy sauce 2 tbsp
    • garlic 4
    • fresh ginger 1 tbsp
    • honey 2 tbsp
    • sesame oil 1 tbsp
    • black pepper 1 tsp

    Marinate the chicken — In a large bowl, whisk together the gochujang, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey, sesame oil, and black pepper. Add the chicken thigh chunks and toss well to coat. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to overnight in the fridge.

  2. 2
    • chicken thigh 800 g

    Arrange the chicken — Preheat the air fryer to 190°C. Arrange the marinated chicken pieces in a single layer in the basket, leaving space between them so they crisp rather than steam.

  3. 3
    • chicken thigh 800 g

    Air fry the chicken — Air fry at 190-200°C for 16-18 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through, until the chicken is caramelized at the edges, cooked through, and no longer pink inside.

  4. 4
    • sesame seeds 1 tbsp
    • spring onion 2

    Garnish and serve — Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced scallion, and serve hot.
