Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat wings dry with paper towels — moisture prevents crisping.

  2. Step 2

    Toss wings with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Arrange wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket without crowding.

  4. Step 4

    Air fry at 400°F for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden and crispy.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer to a serving platter. Serve hot with your favorite sauce or ranch for dipping.
