Air Fryer Soy Honey Garlic Chicken

James Bok is a young social media "influencer" who creates simple, healthy recipes and posts them on Instagram. His latest recipe is for air fryer boneless skinless chicken thighs. He suggests that we cook the chicken thighs until they're slightly charred and deliciously crunchy. This took me almost 15 minutes in my air fryer and the results were spectacular.
One of the reasons why James has become so popular is that he likes to keep his recipes simple. There are only 4 ingredients in the chicken marinade but it tastes much more complex, akin to a garlicky teriyake. Result? A total 'yum' in flavor with very little actual effort. As always, it's low in fat, calories and WW Points, leaving room for a side of rice!

1 1/2 lbs. boneless chicken chicken thighs, trimmed of fat (4 to 6 thighs)
Marinade:
2 Tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tbsp. honey
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. sesame oil
Optional condiments: Sliced green onions and sesame seeds sprinkled on top when serving.
Combine soy sauce, honey, garlic and sesame oil in a bowl and stir to combine. Add chicken thighs and mix thoroughly. You can cook them immediately, or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to marinate.
Spray the inside of the air fryer with olive oil spray, place chicken in a single layer and air fry at 400 degrees F for about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.
WW Points per serving: 2
