📝 Preparation Steps

Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F in air fryer mode.
2
Dry wings: Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels (this is crucial for achieving crispiness) and transfer them to a large bowl.

Coat the wings: Toss the wings in the oil. Whisk the spices together in a small bowl, then add them to the wings and stir until evenly coated.
4
Air fry: Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Working in batches, arrange the wings in a single layer in the basket. Cook for ⏱️ 7 minutes, then flip them over and cook for an additional ⏱️ 6-8 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
5
Serve: Enjoy them plain (they’re delicious on their own!), with a dipping sauce like ranch, or toss them in your favorite sauce, such as buffalo (See Notes for recipe) or BBQ with a touch of sriracha, etc.
