Method
 

Instructions
  1. Pat the chicken wings dry thoroughly with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the dried chicken wings with baking powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). If desired, lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  4. Arrange the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd.
  5. Air fry for 15 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and crispness.
  6. Check for an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure they are fully cooked.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or seasoning.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider marinating the wings for at least 30 minutes before air frying. For spicier wings, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix. Always cook in batches if your air fryer basket is small to maintain crispiness.
