Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings

Ingredients

• 2 lb chicken wings (drumettes and flats)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 serving cooking spray
• ½ cup hot sauce (optional)
• ½ cup ranch dressing (optional)
• 2 stalks celery sticks (optional)

Steps

1. Pat chicken wings thoroughly dry with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness.
2. In a large bowl, toss the dried chicken wings with baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
3. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
4. Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd. Cook in batches if necessary.
5. Air fry for 18-22 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
6. Serve immediately with hot sauce, ranch dressing, and celery sticks if desired.
