Ingredients
Air Fryer Chicken Wings
- 1 pound chicken wings (about 10 wings) wingette and drummette separated
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon pepper seasoning
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Lemon Pepper Dipping Sauce
- ¼ cup melted butter or ghee
- ½ tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- 1 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from half the zested lemon)
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer for 2 to 3 minutes at 390℉ (200℃). Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel, and place them in a mixing bowl. Toss the wings with the oil, lemon pepper seasoning, and salt.
- Place the wings in an even layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 18 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway through or shaking and tossing the basket every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- While the chicken wings are cooking, prepare the lemon pepper sauce. Stir together the warm butter, honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, lemon pepper seasoning, and salt.
- Serve the chicken wings along with the dipping sauce. Alternatively, you can toss the chicken wings in a little bit of the sauce before serving.

Notes
- Each serving is about 3 wings.
- There's a lot of air fryers to choose from. After doing a bit of research I purchased this Ninja Max Air Fryer and have been loving it!
