Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
  • Your favorite wing sauce for tossing (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help achieve the crispiest texture.
  2. Season: In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using) until evenly coated.
  3. Air Fry: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 25-30 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  4. Sauce (Optional): If desired, toss the cooked wings in your favorite wing sauce for an extra layer of flavor.
  5. Serve: Enjoy the wings hot, paired with dipping sauces or sides of your choice.
