We love a good classic roasted chicken, but it's not always practical for a weeknight dinner. This easy air fryer recipe takes most of the waiting out of roasting a chicken, with remarkably similar results. We found that even when we cooked our chicken well past 165°, it was still juicy and not at all dry. Air fryer, we love you.

Ingredients
- 1
(3- to 4-lb.) whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 Tbsp.
dried thyme
- 2 tsp.
dried oregano
- 2 tsp.
garlic powder
- 2 tsp.
onion powder
- 1 tsp.
smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp.
cayenne
Directions
- Step 1Season chicken all over with salt and black pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk thyme, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne, then rub spice mixture all over chicken.
- Step 2In an air-fryer basket, arrange dark meat pieces in a single layer. Cook at 350° for 10 minutes. Turn pieces and continue to cook until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°, about 10 minutes more. Repeat with chicken breasts, but reduce cook time to about 8 minutes per side; cook until juices run clear and instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of breast registers 165°.
