Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) for an extra kick!
  • to taste cooking spray to prevent sticking

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
  • In a large bowl, toss the wings with vegetable oil and all spices until well coated.
  • Spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  • Arrange the wings in a single layer in the basket, ensuring they have space to crisp up.

Cooking

  • Cook for 25-30 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  • Remove from the air fryer and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Consider using anchors like ranch, buffalo sauce, or blue cheese for dipping. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge, and reheat in the air fryer for best results. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket for crispy results!
