Ingredients
  

For the Wings
  • 1.5 lbs Chicken Wings, sectioned into flats and drums
  • 1/2 tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder Do not swap baking soda.

Garlic Parmesan Wings Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Butter, melted, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan Use fresh kind from the refrigerated section.

  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Small dish or ramekin

Method
 

  1. Remove the chicken wing parts from the refrigerator and pat them dry. Removing moisture helps create a crispy skin.
  2. Mix the sea salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and baking powder in a small dish or ramekin.
  3. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on the wings and toss them to coat evenly.
  4. Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  5. Cook the chicken at 400 degrees in the air fryer for 12 to 15 minutes per side.
  6. For the sauce, mix all of the sauce ingredients by stirring them in a small bowl.
  7. Toss the cooked wings in the garlic parmesan mixture and serve them right away.

You can store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for 3 months. Reheat them in a 360F air fryer for 6 to 7 minutes, or in a 350F oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
