- Season and Dredge Chicken:
- Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, shaking off any excess.
- Preheat Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (180°C).
- Air Fry Chicken:
- Place the chicken thighs in the air fryer basket, skin side down. Cook for about 12-15 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Sauté Vegetables:
- While the chicken is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion, sliced bell peppers, minced garlic, and mushrooms. Sauté until vegetables are tender.
- Combine Sauce:
- Add diced tomatoes (with their juices), chicken broth, oregano, basil, thyme, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Combine Chicken and Sauce:
- Once the chicken is done in the air fryer, transfer it to the skillet with the tomato sauce. Let it simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce thickens.
- Serve:
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve the Hunter Chicken over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread.
