Instructions

1

Dry and Season the Wings

Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels. In a large bowl toss the wings with baking powder garlic powder smoked paprika onion powder salt and pepper until evenly coated.

2

Preheat the Air Fryer

Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F for 5 minutes. This step ensures the wings start cooking immediately and get crispier faster.

3

Air Fry the Wings

Arrange wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overlap them. Cook at 400 degrees F for 12 minutes then flip each wing.

Flip and Finish Cooking

5

Sauce and Serve

Substitutions

Common mistakes

Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket or the wings will not crisp evenly
