Method

1. Heat the air fryer to 200°C.

3. In a bowl, mix together the flour and seasoning.
4. Add the sunflower oil to the same bowl and stir to combine.
5. Toss the chicken thighs in the flour mixture until they are evenly coated.
6. Place the chicken thighs in a single layer on the air fryer tray.
7. Cook for 35 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
