Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pounds Chicken wings Feel free to use frozen or fresh.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil Helps to create that irresistible crispy skin.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Essential for bringing out the natural flavor of the chicken.
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder Adds a delightful depth of flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce For that spicy kick (optional).
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese For those who prefer a savory twist.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by patting the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they get super crispy when cooked.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well coated.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring there is enough space for air circulation.
  2. Cook the wings for about 25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  3. If using buffalo sauce, toss the wings in the sauce right before serving or serve with the sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

For extra crispy wings, consider marinating them in buttermilk for a few hours before cooking. Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.
