- 1 ½ tablespoons oil avocado or olive
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper

- Add wing portions and toss until well coated.
- Sprinkle wings with starch and toss again until they’re completely coated.
- Place wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, trying not to overcrowd them. If using less than a 6-quart model, you may need to cook the wings in 2 batches in order to do this.
- Cook wings for 24 minutes, flipping wings or shaking the basket every 4-5 minutes.
- Increase the air fryer temperature to 400°F and return the wings to the fryer for an additional 1-2 minutes for extra crispy wings.
- Parmesan Garlic Wings: Drizzle wings with melted butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and finely chopped fresh parsley. Toss until well coated.
- Buffalo Wings: Toss wings in buffalo wing sauce and serve with finely chopped fresh green onions.
