Let’s Get Cooking:
1.
Prepare the Chicken:
Arrange the chicken thighs on a board in a single layer. Generously dust each thigh with BBQ seasoning and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, gently pressing the crumbs onto the chicken so they adhere.2.
Air Fry the Chicken:
Place the seasoned chicken thighs in a single layer in your air fryer basket. Drizzle a little olive oil over the chicken. Cook at 180°C (355°F) for 20 minutes, turning the chicken over halfway through cooking.3.
Add the Corn:
After 20 minutes, place the corn on the cob on top of the chicken and continue cooking at 180°C (355°F) for 10 minutes, or until the corn is golden brown and cooked through. Be sure to flip the chicken halfway through this step.4.
Serve and Enjoy:
Remove the chicken and corn from the air fryer and serve immediately. Garnish with picked coriander leaves and lime wedges for squeezing over, if desired.Tips and Variations:
