Instructions
1
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness.
2
In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper until evenly coated.
3
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
4
Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
5
Cook for 10 minutes, then flip the wings and cook for another 10 minutes or until golden and crispy.
6
Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer; it should read 165°F (74°C).
7
Let the wings rest for 5 minutes before serving for maximum juiciness.
Chef's Tips
- Dry Brine: For extra flavor, season the wings and let them sit in the fridge for a few hours before cooking.
- Sauce Option: Toss the cooked wings in your favorite sauce like buffalo, BBQ, or honey garlic.
- Batch Cooking: Cook in batches if your air fryer is small to avoid steaming the wings.
- Crispiness: For extra crispiness, spray the wings lightly with cooking spray before air frying.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer to maintain crispiness.
