Description
These crispy air fryer wings are the perfect game day snack or party appetizer. They’re seasoned to perfection and cooked to a golden brown in the air fryer, resulting in juicy chicken with a crispy exterior.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
- 1/4 cup your favorite wing sauce (Buffalo, BBQ, etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until evenly coated.
- Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook the wings for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time, until they are crispy and have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Once cooked, remove the wings from the air fryer and toss them in your favorite wing sauce.
- Serve immediately with celery sticks and ranch or blue cheese dressing.
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, you can pat them dry with paper towels before seasoning.
- Feel free to adjust the spices according to your taste.
- If you like your wings extra saucy, toss them in more sauce after cooking.
