In this blog post, we will guide you through the process of cooking hot wings in the air fryer, ensuring you achieve perfectly cooked wings every time.
What You’ll Need:
- 1 pound of chicken wings

Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, mix the vegetable oil, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper.
- Toss the chicken wings in the seasoned mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Place the wings in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches.
- Cook the wings in the air fryer for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking process to ensure even crispiness.
- Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a clean bowl.
- Pour your favorite hot wing sauce over the wings and toss them gently to coat each one.
- Return the coated wings to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize.
- Remove the hot wings from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
And there you have it! Your very own batch of hot wings cooked to perfection using your trusty air fryer. Serve them up with some celery sticks, carrot sticks, and a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for the ultimate game-day snack or party appetizer.
By utilizing the innovative technology of the air fryer, you can enjoy the indulgence of hot wings with a fraction of the oil traditionally used in deep frying. The hot air circulation within the air fryer ensures that your wings come out crispy on the outside while remaining tender and juicy on the inside.
