- Place the rooster thighs in a medium bowl and pour the olive oil on high. Sprinkle the spices on high of the rooster, then use your palms to ensure each side are evenly coated with oil and spices.
- Place the rooster thighs within the air fryer basket (no wire rack), pores and skin aspect down. Prepare dinner for 10 minutes, then flip and prepare dinner pores and skin aspect up for one more 10-12 minutes. The rooster is finished when the pores and skin is crispy and the interior temperature registers 175ºF with an instant-read thermometer. DO NOT add PAM to the air fryer as it should smoke, the rooster has sufficient oil to not want it.

Notes
- Oven technique: Preheat your oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with a Silpat or parchment paper. Place the rooster on the sheet and bake for 35-45 minutes, till it registers 175ºF with an instant-read thermometer.
