Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. This takes about 3 minutes and ensures crispy skin.
  2. 2. Pat 400 g chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Wet skin will never get crispy.
  3. 3. Rub the chicken thighs with 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Make sure to distribute evenly.
  4. 4. Brush the seasoned chicken thighs with 2 tbsp olive oil. This helps them brown evenly.
  5. 5. Place the chicken thighs in the air fryer basket. Ensure they don't touch each other.
  6. 6. Cook the chicken thighs at 180 °C for about 20 minutes, until golden brown. Turn them after 10 minutes for even browning.
  7. 7. Remove the cooked chicken thighs from the air fryer. Let them rest for 5 minutes to redistribute the juices.
  8. 8. Wash 1 bunch parsley under cold water. Remove any wilted leaves and dry it well.
  9. 9. Wash 1 bunch chives under cold water. Chop them into fine pieces.
  10. 10. Squeeze the juice from 1 lemon. Use a lemon press or your hands.
  11. 11. Put 200 g quark into a small bowl. This is the base for your sauce.
  12. 12. Combine the quark with the lemon juice, chopped herbs, salt and pepper. Stir until smooth.
  13. 13. Cut the chicken thighs into pieces if you like. This makes it easier to scoop up the quark.
  14. 14. Serve the chicken thighs with the herb quark. It’s perfect when the skin still crackles.
