Description
Make crispy chicken wings in your air fryer with this simple recipe. Achieve golden brown perfection with minimal oil and easy cleanup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs chicken wings (flats and drumettes)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (aluminum-free)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Pat the chicken wings thoroughly dry with paper towels. This is a crucial step for crispy skin.
- In a large bowl, toss the dried chicken wings with olive oil until lightly coated.
- In a small bowl, combine baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this mixture over the wings and toss until each wing is evenly coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (195°C) for 5 minutes.
- Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd. Cook in batches if necessary.
- Air fry for 20-25 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy. For extra crispiness, increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 5 minutes.
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
