Air Fryer Chicken Wings

For a kid-friendly meal or party snack, make chicken wings in the air fryer! They have super crispy skin, and taste as good as restaurant wings!

📝 Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings (flats and/or drumettes)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more/less, to adjust spiciness )

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Turn on your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) to preheat.
2. 2Meanwhile, measure each of the ingredients for the spice rub and add to a small bowl. Use a spoon to mix together well, until fully combined.
3. 3Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. *They should be as dry as possible so that the dry rub adheres.
4. 4Season wings generously with dry rub, making sure to coat both sides of the pieces. Let the wings rest at room temperature for 5 minutes to allow the seasoning to adhere to the skin.
5. 5Arrange the wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer. *Depending on the capacity of your air fryer, you may have to air fry chicken wings in batches.
6. 6Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 18-20 minutes, shaking the basket or using tongs to turn the wings over after 10 minutes cook time.
7. 7Remove from the air fryer when wings are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) on a meat thermometer.
