Perfectly Crispy Air Fryer Breaded Chicken Wings

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound (480 g) chicken wings
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed peppercorn

Instructions:

Step 1: Begin by placing the chicken wings in a large bowl. Drizzle with vegetable oil and toss until evenly coated. Set aside.

Step 2: In a separate small mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients – flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, and crushed peppercorn. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors.

Step 3: Take each oiled wing and dredge it in the dry mixture, ensuring it’s thoroughly coated on all sides.

Step 4: Preheat your air fryer to 400º F (200º C). This ensures the perfect cooking temperature for achieving crispy, golden-brown wings.

Step 5: Carefully arrange the coated wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow proper air circulation.

Step 6: Cook the wings in the preheated air fryer for approximately 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking process to ensure even crispiness on both sides.

Step 7: To ensure the wings are cooked through, check their internal temperature using a meat thermometer. They should register at least 165º F (82º C) to ensure they’re safe to eat.

Step 8: Once cooked to perfection, remove the wings from the air fryer and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Enjoy these irresistibly crispy air fryer breaded chicken wings as a delicious appetizer or main dish!
