Servings 2 servings
Ingredients
- 6 whole chicken wings
- Olive oil in a pump spray bottle
- Black pepper
- Garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare your chicken wings. Wash them, pat them dry. Tuck the wing tips under the drumette and place in the air fryer basket. Do not add seasoning at this point as it will burn.
- Spray each wing with one pump of olive oil spray
- Set your air fryer for 15 minutes at 400 degrees.
- After 7 minutes, pull out your air fryer basket and use tongs to flip over the wings.
- Once the 15 minute cooking time elapses, use a meat thermometer and ensure the chicken. If they are cooked through to 165, remove them using tongs. If they are not cooked thoroughly, cook for an additional 5 minutes until they reach that correct temperature.
- Let rest for two or three minutes, sprinkle with fresh cracked black pepper and garlic powder, then toss the wings in your favorite sauce or rub.
Notes
- This recipe serves two people, depending on how "big an eater" you are, you can make fewer or more wings following this same recipe.
- If you need to make additional wings, don't overload the air fryer basket. Keep the wings in a single layer to ensure even heating.
- Every air cooker will vary in terms of cooking times. Always check your food with a thermometer.
