Ingredients
- Cooking spray for air fryer basket
- 1 pound chicken wings, split into flats and drummettes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for serving
- Ranch dressing for serving
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 380°F. Once heated, spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Season the Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry thoroughly to ensure they crisp up well. In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, paprika, and garlic powder. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook the Wings: Arrange the wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer without overlapping or touching, allowing air to circulate freely. Cook at 380°F for 10 minutes.
- Crisp the Wings: After 10 minutes, increase the air fryer temperature to 400°F and continue cooking for an additional 6 to 8 minutes or until the wings are crisp and golden brown.
- Serve: Garnish the cooked wings with chopped parsley and serve immediately with ranch dressing on the side for dipping, if desired.
Notes
- Storage: Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 360°F for 4 minutes or microwave until heated through.
- Freezing Instructions: Freeze cooked wings for up to one month. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
