Description
Crispy and juicy air fried chicken wings made with simple ingredients. Perfect for a quick meal or game day snack.
Ingredients
1 lb chicken wings
1/2 tsp kosher salt or to taste
1/2 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tbsp neutral oil (avocado, canola, or vegetable oil)
Instructions
1. Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
2. In a bowl, season the chicken wings with salt and white pepper along with baking powder and neutral oil. Mix until the wings are evenly coated.
3. In a single layer, place the chicken wings in the air fryer and air fry for 10 minutes at 400°F.
4. Flip the chicken wings and air fry again for 7–12 minutes at 400°F or until the skin is golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve with your favorite wing sauce or eat dry and enjoy!
Notes
Use aluminum-free baking powder to avoid metallic aftertaste.
White pepper has a milder flavor than black pepper, adjust if substituting.
Let wings rest after cooking for extra crispiness.
Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure wings reach at least 165°F internal temperature.
