Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken wings (party wings or drumettes)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving maximum crispiness.
2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, poultry seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure the wings are evenly coated.
3. Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each piece for proper air circulation. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through, or until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internal temperature).
4. Tips:
5. For extra crispy wings, increase the baking powder to 1 ½ tablespoons.
6. If your air fryer is small, cook the wings in batches to avoid overcrowding the basket.
7. Frozen wings can be used in a pinch. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, depending on the size of the wings.
8. For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix.
