TIPS AND TRICKS

Make sure you pat dry all the chicken wings with paper towel.

Do not over crowd the air fryer basket: Place chicken wings in a single layer, and leave a little space around for the air to circulate, which helps in crisping the wings. OVER CROWDING will NOT make a crispy wings.

Yes, you can cook frozen wings in an Air Fryer! If you are using frozen wings, air fry them for 5 additional minutes at 360 degrees F (23 minutes total at this temperature). The wings may stick together at first. Simply shake the tray or basket after a few minutes to separate them, then use tongs to arrange them so they are not touching.

To Store: Refrigerate leftover chicken wings for up to 3 days.

To Reheat: Let the wings come to room temperature. Mist with water to help make them juicy, then reheat in the oven at 350 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes, or the air fryer at 350 degrees F for 6 minutes, turning once halfway through.
