Description

Crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned air fryer chicken wings that are sure to be a hit at any gathering. Easy to make and deliciously flavorful!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
  • Your favorite wing sauce (Buffalo, BBQ, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  4. Air fry the wings for 25-30 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
  5. Once cooked, toss the wings in your favorite sauce and serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra crispy wings, you can increase the cooking time by 5-10 minutes, checking for doneness.
  • Feel free to experiment with different seasonings or sauces to customize your wings.
  • If you prefer un-sauced wings, simply season and air fry, then serve with dipping sauces on the side.
