Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika regular or smoked
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp chipotle powder can substitute with chili powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Prepare
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Pat chicken wings very dry with paper towels, then place in a large mixing bowl.
Make dry rub
- In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, chipotle powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Coat chicken wings
- Drizzle chicken wings with oil and stir/toss to coat them.
- Sprinkle about half the dry rub over the chicken and use your hands to stir/toss the wings with the rub, massaging the spices into the chicken.
- Repeat with the remaining dry rub.
Air fry
- If desired, add a piece of parchment paper (cut to the size of the air fryer basket) to the bottom of the basket. Do this right before adding the chicken wings to the air fryer. It's not necessary, you can air fry the wings directly in the basket.
- Working in batches, add several chicken wings in the air fryer, skin side down. Do this in a single layer, leaving a little space around each wing to allow for even cooking.
- Air fry for 8 minutes, then flip them over and cook another 8 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature (with an internal meat thermometer) of 165°F.
- Since you'll be working in batches, I recommend keeping a baking sheet in a 250°F oven (if you have one), and transferring each batch of cooked wings to the oven while you air fry the next batch.
Serve
- Serve hot, with your favorite dipping sauce (ranch, bleu cheese, bbq, buffalo), and some carrot and celery sticks.
Notes
- Oven Directions:
- The total time for this recipe will depend on the size of your air fryer basket and how many wings you can cook per batch. The time listed is for one batch.
- I've estimated this recipe will serve approximately 4 people, however the exact serving size is up to you.
- Make dry rub and coat chicken as directed above.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with 2 sheets of aluminum foil (or 1 heavy duty sheet). Top that with an oven safe cooling rack and spray it with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Add chicken wings to prepared cooling rack-topped baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes.
