For the Chicken Wings
  • 1.5 lbs chicken wings, split into drumettes and flats
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
    • For the Garlic Parmesan Sauce
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
    • For Garnish
  • Extra Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley
Instructions
  1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it heat for a few minutes.
  2. Season the Wings: In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
  3. Cook the Wings: Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket (cook in batches if necessary). Air fry for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Make the Sauce: While the wings cook, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in Parmesan cheese, parsley, and red pepper flakes.
  5. Toss & Serve: Transfer the crispy wings to a bowl, pour the garlic Parmesan sauce over them, and toss until fully coated.
  6. Garnish & Enjoy: Sprinkle with extra Parmesan and fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy warm!
