Air Fryer Chicken Wings
Description
This recipe starts with chicken wings, separated into drums and flats if whole, and dried thoroughly to help the skin crisp in the air fryer. They are tossed with olive oil and a blend of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. The air fryer is preheated to 400°F before wings are placed in a single layer ensuring space between pieces for airflow. Wings cook for 10 minutes, then are flipped and cooked another 8 minutes to develop even browning.
The resulting wings have a crisp exterior and juicy interior, achieved without added fat from frying. The mild seasoning enhances the natural chicken flavor without overpowering. This method offers a convenient way to make wings with less mess than traditional frying.
For storage, wings keep up to three days refrigerated. Reheating in the air fryer at 400 degrees for a few minutes refreshes crispness. Nutritional information per serving highlights a moderate calorie and fat content relative to typical wing preparations.

Notes
