Instructions

Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.
Coat the chicken thighs in the olive oil, garlic powder, and salt.
Tear off four pieces of aluminium foil, with each sheet being large enough to envelop one chicken thigh.
Place one chicken thigh onto each piece of foil, season it with black pepper, and then top it with slices of lemon.
Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165°F.
Remove the foil packets from the air fryer. Carefully open each packet to avoid a steam burn.
