Combine the sunflower seed flour, salt, and Italian seasoning in a shallow bowl.
Turn the air fryer on to 375° and remove the wire rack (if using the Cuisinart one).
Coat the chicken with the oil and dip it in the flour mixture, pressing onto the chicken to coat evenly. Place on the wire rack, spray with a little 100% avocado oil if you have it.
Cook for 6 minutes, flip and then cook for 4 more minutes. If there are thicker pieces, remove the smaller ones and let the thicker ones cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Reheat leftovers by cooking them in the air fryer for 3 minutes at 375°.
*I linked to one you can buy, but it is way cheaper to just make your own with sunflower seeds in a blender or food processor. Use raw sunflower seeds and blend until flour consistency, it should take under a minute.
**Make sure the Italian seasoning doesn't have onion or garlic. The one I linked doesn't.
