Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds chicken wings
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup barbecue sauce
- Green onions optional for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.
- Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel, then add the wings to a large bowl with the spices and mix with your hands until wings are fully coated with the spices.
- Add the wings to the air fryer basket or rack and cook for 20-25 minutes, checking and flipping halfway through.
- Remove the wings from the air fryer, toss in bbq sauce and enjoy!
Notes
- Pat the wings dry with paper towels for the crispiest chicken skin. The paper towels are going to soak up any excess moisture and allow the skin to become crispy as opposed to steamed.
- Keep ample space between the wings in the fryer basket to help the hot air circulate. If the basket is too crowded and the wings are packed in tightly, the air won't circulate well.
- Cook just until the internal temperature reaches 165-175 degrees F.
- BBQ chicken wings can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer or oven, as desired.
