- 1 – 1 ½ pounds chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon paprika smoked
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- optional 1-2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
Mix seasonings in a small cup to make dry rub.
1 teaspoon paprika smoked, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper
Pat chicken dry with a paper towel.
1 – 1 ½ pounds chicken wings
Sprinkle chicken with half the dry rub. Turn and sprinkle the rest on the other side of the chicken. If desired, brush a little BBQ sauce on each wing.
optional 1-2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
Place chicken wings in air fryer basket. Air fry 18 minutes at 400F. Turn wings about halfway through the cycle (or when air fryer signals you to do so).
Toss or brush with BBQ sauce if desired, or have sauce on the side. Ready to serve immediately.
For extra-crispy chicken, add an additional 3 to 4 minute cycle for about half the wings at a time. You want the wings to be more spread out to facilitate the crisping of the skin.
To keep warm after cooking, place in an open-top oven-safe container in a warm oven until ready to serve.
