The chicken roulade in air fryer is an easy second course that everyone agrees on. It’s made with deboned chicken thighs, much softer and tastier than chicken breast. To make it even lighter, you can remove the skin. Seasoned with fresh herbs, it pairs well with the classic side of potatoes.

Ingredients
- 2 chicken thighs
- 2 sprigs thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 lemon (zest grated)
- salt
- pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Tools
- 1 Knife
- 1 Air Fryer
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Brush
- 1 Small Bowl
- 1 Kitchen Twine
Steps
On a cutting board, debone the chicken thighs keeping the skin, or purchase them already deboned from your trusted butcher. The thighs should include the drumstick.
Grate the lemon zest into a small bowl, add the thyme, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and oil into a small bowl and mix with a fork.
Brush the thighs on the entire side. Roll them and tie with kitchen twine. Brush the outside as well.
Place the chicken thighs inside the basket and cook at 375°F for 45 minutes, turning them halfway through.
Once cooked, remove them from the basket, eliminate the twine, and slice not too thin.
Serve with a side of potatoes or another of your choice.
Advice
The chicken thighs can also be flavored with paprika, curry, or other herbs.
They can also be stuffed with ham and cheese, after being pounded with a meat tenderizer.
They can be cooked with or without the skin.
