    1. Rinse and pat the chicken thighs dry. Season them with salt and pepper on both sides. 2. Dredge the meat in the potato starch on all sides, leaving no bare spots. 3. Heat the sunflower oil in a skillet. The oil should be at least 1/2 inch (1 cm) deep. 4. Lay the thighs in the oil with space between them and fry for 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let the meat rest. If they don't all fit at once, fry them in two batches. 5. Now for the crust: fry the thighs a second time, this time until the coating is golden on both sides. Done. Enjoy!
