Description

Enjoy crispy, flavorful buffalo chicken wings made easily in your air fryer. Perfect for game nights or a tasty snack, these wings are a crowd-pleaser.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce


Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels. This is key for crispiness.
  3. In a bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd. Cook in batches if necessary.
  5. Air fry for 15 minutes.
  6. Flip the wings and air fry for another 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  7. While the wings are cooking, prepare the buffalo sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the buffalo sauce, melted butter, white vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce.
  8. Once the wings are cooked and crispy, place them in a clean bowl.
  9. Pour the buffalo sauce mixture over the hot wings and toss gently to coat.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and celery sticks.

Notes

  • For extra crispy skin, you can add a pinch of baking powder to the dry seasoning mix.
  • Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce to your spice preference.
  • If you don’t have all the spice powders, you can use a poultry seasoning blend.
