When we purchased our air fryer last month, the first thing I wanted to cook in it was chicken wings. Fried chicken wings are our “sometimes” food mainly because it’s deep fried and because I don’t like dealing with assembling and cleaning my deep fryer. Can I help being lazy sometimes.
When we stumbled across the Philips Air Fryer and tasted “pigs in a blanket,” I started thinking of how awesome wings would be cooked in it. So my first attempt was perfect. Second, perfect. And third time, perfect. You can’t mess up cooking in an air fryer because the temperature is steady and it has a cook timer.
Anyway, since all my attempts were successful, I now share my easy recipe for cooking Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings.
Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings
Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings

- In a large mixing bowl combine all the ingredients.
- Preheat the Airfryer to 390°F.
- Place the wings in the cooking basket and cook for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
