Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken wings drumettes and flats, frozen
- chicken rub to taste, low-sodium or seasoning blend
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
- carrot optional garnish
- celery stick optional garnish
Instructions
- Skip the thaw! Ensure your air fryer is ready to go, and preheat it to 400°F.
- Place the frozen chicken wings in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd for even cooking. Air fry for 6 minutes at 400°F to start the crisping process.
- After the initial cook time, open the basket and gently break apart any wings that are sticking together. Sprinkle your wings with a healthy dose of your chosen chicken rub and a black pepper.
- Continue air frying the seasoned wings for another 12-15 minutes at 400°F. Halfway through, open the basket and flip the wings. They're done when they turn golden brown (and an internal temperature of 165°F).
