Ensure chicken wings are fully thawed if frozen. Pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels; this is crucial for achieving a crispy exterior.
💡 Tip: Damp wings will steam rather than crisp up, so don't skip this drying step!
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).
💡 Tip: Using smoked paprika adds a lovely depth of flavor.
Add the dried chicken wings to the bowl and toss well to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes.
💡 Tip: Preheating ensures the wings start cooking immediately and crisp up properly.
Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.
💡 Tip: Adequate space between wings allows hot air to circulate, resulting in maximum crispiness.
Air fry for 12 minutes. Carefully flip the wings and continue to air fry for another 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
💡 Tip: Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for safety. Adjust time slightly based on your air fryer model and wing size.
Remove wings from the air fryer and let them rest for a minute or two before serving. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces or enjoy as is.
