Ingredients

Scale

1 lb chicken wings
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup buffalo or BBQ sauce (optional, for coating)

Instructions

Preheat the Ninja Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.
Prepare the Chicken Wings: In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken wings. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
Air Fry the Wings: Place the chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. Air fry for 10 minutes.
Flip and Continue Cooking: After 10 minutes, flip the wings and cook for an additional 10 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
Optional – Coat with Sauce: If using buffalo or BBQ sauce, remove the wings from the air fryer and toss them in the sauce of your choice. Return the wings to the air fryer and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to set the sauce.
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the wings hot with your favorite dipping sauces, like ranch or blue cheese, and enjoy!

Notes

Crispiness Tip: For extra crispy wings, you can increase the cooking time by 2-3 minutes. Just be sure to check on them to prevent overcooking.
Make it Spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the seasoning mix for a spicier kick.
Sauce Variety: You can experiment with different sauces such as honey garlic, teriyaki, or even a simple lemon pepper rub to add variety to your wings.
Meal Prep: These wings can be cooked ahead of time and stored in the fridge. Reheat them in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 350°F to bring back their crispiness.
