Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 pound frozen chicken wings raw
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees.
  • Place the frozen chicken wings in the air fryer in a single layer.
  • Cook the chicken wings for about 30-35 minutes. Around the 15-minute mark, flip the wings, spritz them with oil, and season them. The wings are done when they are crispy and have reached 165 degrees.
  • Remove the wings from the air fryer, toss in your favorite sauce, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Serve the wings with either some blue cheese or ranch dressing along with celery sticks and carrot sticks.
  • Increase the temperature of the air fryer to 430 degrees F if it allows for the last 2-3 minutes for an extra crispy skin.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.
  • Reheat leftovers wings in a preheated air fryer at 350 degrees for 2 to 3 minutes until warmed and crispy again.
  • Sauce ideas include buffalo sauce, honey garlic sauce, honey sriracha sauce, and honey buffalo sauce.
