  1. 1. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. This takes about 3 minutes.

  3. 3. Rub the chicken thighs with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Season both sides.
  4. 4. Place the chicken thighs in the air fryer basket. Make sure they don't touch.
  5. 5. Cook the chicken thighs at 180 °C for 20 minutes. Flip them after 10 minutes, until golden brown.
  6. 6. Wash the 2 zucchini under running water. Remove the ends if needed.
  7. 7. Cut the zucchini into long noodles. Use a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler.
