Crispy 30-Minute Air Fryer Turkey Thighs Recipe: A Flavorful Budget Recipe Air Fryer Recipes Poultry Dinner

When I saw a package of two turkey thighs (1 1/2 pounds total weight) for $3.15, I asked myself why I don't cook turkey more often. Turkey isn't just for Thanksgiving! If you're looking for budget-friendly recipes, put turkey on your radar.

This crispy, flavorful air fryer turkey thighs recipe has minimal prep and cooks in less than 30 minutes. If you're not a fan of herbes de provence, use another dry herb like Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, dried basil or oregano, or even curry powder. Serve this easy dinner recipe with a grain, vegetable or salad.
