Ingredients:
- 2 lbs of chicken wings
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Directions:
- Begin by preheating your air fryer to 400 degrees F, using the air fry setting, as recommended by the manufacturer.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken wings.
- Season the wings with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, tossing them until they’re evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the cornstarch and baking powder over the wings and toss again until the wings are fully coated with the dry mixture.
- Arrange the wings in the air fryer basket, shaking off any excess powder. Avoid overcrowding by cooking in batches if necessary to maintain a single layer.
- Cook the wings for 28 minutes. At the 10-minute mark, give the basket a shake to ensure even cooking. After 18 minutes (or 8 minutes after shaking), flip the wings to crisp up the other side.
- Once done, transfer the wings to a serving plate.
- Serve the wings hot and crispy from the air fryer and enjoy the perfect crunch!
