Getting Started

  • Pat wings thoroughly dry with paper towels before seasoning. Excess moisture prevents crisping. For best results, let them air dry uncovered in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
  • Cook wings in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding the air fryer basket. Work in batches if necessary. Overcrowding steams the wings instead of crisping them, prolonging cooking time and compromising texture.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 5 minutes before adding wings. This initial burst of heat helps render fat quickly and promotes even browning.
  • Cook for 20-30 minutes total, shaking the basket every 7-8 minutes. Increase temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 5 minutes to achieve extra crispiness. Ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
