Mix garlic salt, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and pepper. Season the chicken thighs. Sprinkle baking powder all over the chicken thighs' skin and rub it on (this is the key to getting the skin super crispy). *Only put baking powder on the skin. Baking powder on the meat part will dry it out.*

In a big bowl, mix all the ingredients in the Chicken Flour Coat Mix section above. Add and mix droplets of water in the seasoned flour mixture (this will help create texture on the chicken skin). Toss the chicken thighs into the mixing bowl and thoroughly coat each chicken piece.

Place the chicken thighs skin side down in an air fryer and spray with cooking oil. Air fry at 385F degrees for 12 minutes then flip over to skin side up, spray with oil, and air fry for another 10-12 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Sprinkle on more cayenne pepper for spice after done air frying.

In a sauce pan, melt butter and flour. Constantly stir on low-medium heat until it turns a medium brown color. Immediately pour in chicken broth at a steady stream and whisk at the same time. Season with chicken bouillon and pepper. Boil and stir for 2-3 minutes or until desired thickness.

Enjoy!
