Air Fryer Chicken Wings

Tuesday, April 26, 2022 2:02

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

One of my favorite things about the local Chinese Buffet here where I live now (when it was open) were the chicken wings. You could tell they were everyone’s favorite because it was a difficult time getting your hands on any.

The proof of the pudding was that the container holding them was always empty, because they were so popular. You would have to wait until they brought out another one and then get up to the buffet fast so that you could get some before they all got taken again!

Beautifully flavored with a lovely crisp skin, they were the worst thing for you, lol. Deep fried and filled with fat. Why is it that the worst things for us are always the most delicious???

Its not fair!

I am slowly coming to terms with my air fryer. I am no longer cremating things in it. I think its called reading the instructions. DUH. I am so impatient when it comes to learning.

I tend to just jump in and start doing. I am learning there is a great folly in that and am making myself pay better attention to things like reading the instructions for my appliances. I am a person who generally learns best by doing rather than reading.

This doesn’t always work.

Anyways, the last few things I have done in the air fryer have worked beautifully. Remember the Air Fryer Turnip Fries I did the other day? They came out perfectly.

So much so that I have done them a few more times with a variety of seasonings. Today I used Everything Bagel Seasoning with excellent results.

These Air Fryer Chicken Wings came out perfect as well. Not dried out in the least. Succulent and tender, with a beautiful crispy skin.

Perfectly seasoned and almost identical in flavor to the wings from our local Chinese, with no frying or msg. Just a perfect mix of seasonings. They turned out perfectly delicious!

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE AIR FRYER CHICKEN WINGS

I used only one half of the wing, in this case today, all the flat bits. I will tell you why shortly.

1 pound chicken wings, split, tips removed
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp sweet paprika

When we buy chicken wings at our local shops, they are organic, grain fed chicken wings and already split, with the tips having been removed and discarded.

When you look at a chicken wing which has been split, there are two very different pieces to each wing. One flat piece and one drum stick shaped piece.

For today’s purposes I used all of the flat bits and froze the drum stick pieces for another day. You can use both, but cook all the flat pieces together, and then all the drum stick shaped pieces together.

The reason for this is because they cook in different times and you want continuity of cooking. The flatter pieces will be done before the rounder pieces. Makes sense. If you are cooking the drumstick pieces they may take slightly longer to cook than the times suggested in the recipe I am sharing today.

HOW TO COOK AIR FRYER CHICKEN WINGS

Easy peasy when you know what you are doing!

Place the chicken wings into a zip lock baggie large enough to hold them comfortably so you can shake them.

Mix all of the seasonings together. Add them to the zip lock baggie with the chicken and give everything a good shake and rub, making sure that the seasonings are evenly distributed between the chicken pieces.

Spray the basket of your air fryer with some cooking spray. Add the chicken wings in one layer.

Air fry on 360*F/185*C for 10 minutes. Flip the wings over. Cook for a further 10 minutes at 360*F/185*C. Increase the temperature to 390*F/190*C and cook for a further 6 minutes, or until the juices run clear when pierced at the thickest part.

I did not add any oil or spray the wings with any cooking spray and as you can see they turned out perfectly. Crisp and yet not dry in the least. They were most enjoyable.

If you are a fan of chicken wings, I do have more recipes for them. All equally delicious!

CRISPY HOT WINGS – Crisp and sticky delicious with just the right amount of heat! I like to enjoy these with some blue cheese dressing for dipping.

ZESTY HONEY & LIME CHICKEN WINGS - These deliciously sticky, tangy and spicy wings will be gobbled up quick time. They’re fabulous!

These were delicious. I am so pleased that I decided to give my air fryer another go and try these in it. Success lies all in the timings and the temperatures! I really hope you will try them yourself.

You could also cook these in a regular oven. The temperatures would be about the same, but they will take a bit longer to cook. You may also want to add a bit of oil.
