These Air Fryer Chicken Wings are SERIOUSLY crispy! Served with your favorite sauce, they\u2019re ready in just 25 minutes with minimal clean up<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Do you ever just crave a crispy, juicy, delicious basket of wings without having to go out?<\/p>\n

The more I use my air fryer the more I love it!<\/p>\n

Nothing beats that crispy exterior (with less oil!) and juicy interior.<\/p>\n

But these wings \u2014 you have got to give them a try!<\/p>\n

How to make air fryer wings:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Preheat the air fryer so that the wings start cooking when you get them in there. While it\u2019s doing this, dry the wings with paper towel well (wet meat doesn\u2019t brown!).<\/li>\n
  2. Oil and season the chicken wings. Mixing corn starch into your seasoning is the key, because corn starch coats the wings easily and absorbs any excess moisture\u2013 making the crispiest chicken wings you\u2019ve ever had.<\/li>\n
  3. Then the air fryer does the rest of the work! You only have to flip them once during cooking, and they turn out so crispy and perfectly juicy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Air Fryer Chicken Wings FAQs<\/h2>\n
    \n
    \n

    How long does it take to cook wings in an air fryer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    In just 15-20 minutes these wings are ready to serve! The exact cook time will depend on the size of your chicken wings and how full your air fryer is. Your best bet is to check every 5 minutes until they are done.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    Can I skip the oil?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Technically, yes. But if you really want crispy and flavorful chicken wings, the oil is key. The oil allows the seasoning and corn starch to adhere to the chicken wings and give them that crispy coating. Without it, they may be seasoned but they definitely won\u2019t be as crispy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    What type of sauce is good with air fryer chicken wings?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Classic Buffalo sauce is always a good bet, but this Homemade BBQ Sauce or the sauce from this Honey Garlic Chicken would be amazing!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    How to store cooked chicken wings:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    In the unlikely case that you happen to have leftovers, they can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container up to three days.
    \nTo reheat, simply preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees and cook until heated through, 4-5 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    What kind of air fryer is best?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    That depends on what your family enjoys. This recipe was made in an 8 quart Chefman air fryer and we love it! It works great. But I haven\u2019t tried them all, obviously<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    Can I cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Absolutely! They will take a little more time, though. Simply toss in oil and seasoning as the recipe calls for, and cook for 20-30 minutes, checking every 5-10 minutes until done.<\/p>\n

    How to split chicken wings:<\/h2>\n

    If you can\u2019t find already split chicken wings, you can split for own!<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Cut wings into three pieces. Start by stretching out the wing on your cutting board and cutting between the joint of the drumette and the wingette.<\/li>\n
    • Then make a second cut between the wingette and the wing tip.<\/li>\n
    • Place drumettes and wingettes in a large bowl. You can save and freeze the wing tips to make chicken stock!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      How to cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer:<\/h2>\n

      Cooking frozen chicken wings in the air fryer is easy to do!<\/p>\n

      Simply toss in oil and seasoning as the recipe calls for, and cook for 10 minutes, then flip and continue cooking for 10-20 minutes until done and crispy, checking every 5-10 minutes until done.<\/p>\n

      The only problem you make encounter is that the coating and seasoning does not stick as well with frozen chicken wings, since they will release some moisture as they cook. If this happens, you can season again and cook for 5-8 minutes until crispy.<\/p>\n
