Spicy Buttermilk Chicken with Broccoli-Raisin Slaw

Ingredients

¾ cup low-fat buttermilk

¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper, divided

½ teaspoon salt plus 1/8 teaspoon, divided

¼ teaspoon ground pepper plus 1/8 teaspoon, divided

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (1 1/2 pounds)

½ cup white whole-wheat flour

Cooking spray

½ cup low-fat plain strained yogurt, such as Greek-style

2 tablespoons cider vinegar

2 tablespoons orange juice

1 tablespoon honey

1 (12 ounce) package broccoli slaw

½ cup golden raisins

Directions

Whisk buttermilk, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken; press to submerge. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours.

Combine flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cayenne in a shallow dish. Lightly coat the basket of a 6- to 9-quart air fryer with cooking spray.

Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off (discard marinade). Dredge in the flour mixture; coat generously with cooking spray. Arrange in the prepared basket. Cook at 350°F, flipping and coating with additional cooking spray once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part without touching bone registers 175°F, about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk yogurt, vinegar, orange juice, honey and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add broccoli slaw and raisins. Toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
