Prepare the Buffalo Sauce and Serve
Omit the paprika. After air frying, toss the wings in a mixture of 4 tbsp melted butter, the zest and juice of one lemon, and 1.5 tsp of coarse black pepper.
Skip the buffalo sauce. In a saucepan, simmer 1/2 cup honey, 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1 tsp ginger paste. Toss the cooked wings in the sauce.
Instead of buffalo sauce, toss the cooked wings in 3/4 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce mixed with 1-2 tsp of sriracha or chipotle powder.
Enjoy the wings straight out of the air fryer with just the dry rub seasoning. They are delicious on their own without any sauce.
Chicken wings are packed with high-quality protein, essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting muscle growth, and maintaining a healthy immune system.
Air frying requires significantly less oil than traditional deep-frying, resulting in wings with a lower overall fat and calorie content while still achieving a delicious crispy texture.
Chicken is a good source of B vitamins, particularly Niacin (B3) and B6, which are crucial for converting food into energy, supporting brain function, and forming red blood cells.
A single serving (about 6 wings with buffalo sauce) contains approximately 600-650 calories, not including blue cheese or ranch dressing. The exact number can vary based on the size of the wings and specific ingredients used.
They are a healthier alternative to deep-fried wings because they use far less oil, reducing fat and calories. They are a great source of protein. However, they are still high in sodium and saturated fat (from the skin and butter), so they should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
Yes. First, air fry the frozen wings at 380°F (190°C) for 10 minutes to thaw them. Then, drain any liquid, pat them completely dry, toss with the oil and seasoning, and proceed with the recipe, adding about 5-7 extra minutes to the total cooking time.
The most common reasons are not drying the wings thoroughly with paper towels, or overcrowding the air fryer basket. Ensure the wings are bone-dry before seasoning and cook them in a single layer to allow hot air to circulate properly.
While optional, baking powder is highly recommended for an ultra-crispy, crackly skin. It raises the pH level of the chicken skin, helping it to brown and get crunchier. Be sure to use baking powder, not baking soda.
