Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer at 380 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Prepare the chicken wings: remove any present feathers. If they are whole, separate the flats from the drumsticks and cut off the tips. Pat the chicken dry as this helps keep them crispy. 2 pounds chicken wings
- Transfer the chicken wings to a bowl. Add the cornstarch, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss until all the chicken wings are fully coated. For maximum flavor, you want to allow the chicken wings to marinate for at least 30 minutes but this is optional. 2 tablespoon cornstarch 2 cloves garlic ½ teaspoon salt ½ black or white pepper 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Without overcrowding, arrange the chicken wings in a single layer inside your air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
- Air fry the salt and pepper chicken wings at 380 degrees F (190 degrees C), for 24-30 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C). Flip them mid-cooking. Once done, remove the chicken wings from the air fryer and transfer them to a bowl.
- Prepare the topping by combining salt, black or white pepper, garlic powder, and Chinese 5 spice in a small bowl. Add this spice mix to the bowl with the chicken wings and gently toss to combine. ½ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon black or white pepper ½ teaspoon garlic powder ½ teaspoon Chinese 5 spice
- Transfer the chicken wings to a plate, garnish them with sliced spring onions and chilis, and allow them to rest for at least 2-5 minutes. 2 red or green chilis 2 sprigs spring onions (or scallions)
- Serve these ninja air fryer salt and pepper chicken wings with some dipping sauce, a side salad, or your favorite side dishes.

Notes
- The cornstarch helps draw moisture from the chicken wings, thereby helping to keep them crispy. You can also use baking powder, in place of cornstarch.
