Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

Cook at 400°F (204°C) for 18–22 minutes, flipping or shaking the basket halfway through.

• For boneless wings: check around 14–16 minutes

• For bone-in wings: cook up to 22 minutes

Step 4: Check for Doneness

Wings should be golden and crispy on the outside and fully cooked through (internal temp: 165°F / 74°C).

Step 5: Toss & Serve

Toss in your favorite sauce or serve plain with dipping sauces. Enjoy immediately!
