Ingredients
Scale
- 18–20 split chicken wings (drumette and winglet)
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
-
Prepare the Wings:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps the wings crisp up in the air fryer.
-
Season the Wings:
- In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
-
Air Fry the Wings:
- Place the wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If necessary, work in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Air fry the wings at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
-
Serve:
- Once the wings are crispy and fully cooked, remove them from the air fryer. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or as-is for a delicious snack.
Notes
- If you want extra crispy wings, lightly spray the wings with cooking spray before air frying.
- For a more intense flavor, marinate the wings in the seasoning for 30 minutes to an hour before cooking.
- You can adjust the seasoning to your preference, adding more or less of any spice.
