Equipment

  • air fryer
  • mixing bowl
  • paper towels
  • tongs

Ingredients

  • chicken wings
  • baking powder
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • garlic powder

Instructions

  • Pat the chicken wings completely dry using paper towels to remove moisture.
  • Place wings in a bowl and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and baking powder. Toss evenly to coat.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for a few minutes.
  • Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overcrowding.
  • Cook for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
  • Increase temperature to 400°F and cook for another 5–8 minutes until crispy and golden.

Notes

For extra crispiness, make sure the wings are completely dry before seasoning. Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. You can customize flavors by adding sauces like buffalo, BBQ, or garlic parmesan after cooking.
