Breaded chicken wings in the air fryer are a delicious and healthier alternative to typical deep-fried wings. Here’s a quick and easy recipe for air fryer breaded chicken wings:
2 pounds chicken wings, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt – 1/4 tsp black pepper – 2 beaten eggs – Cooking spray
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer for 5 minutes at 400°F (200°C).
- Combine the all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a small basin. To incorporate the seasonings, mix thoroughly.
- Dip each chicken wing into the beaten eggs, letting excess drip off. Then, gently press the chicken wing in the seasoned flour mixture to adhere.
- Arrange the breaded chicken wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook the wings in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Spray the chicken wings lightly with cooking spray. This will help them crisp up.
- Cook the chicken wings for 20 to 25 minutes in the air fryer, flipping halfway through. Keep an eye on them because the precise cooking time may vary depending on the size of the wings and the efficiency of your air fryer.
- Remove the chicken wings from the air fryer when they are golden brown and crispy and set aside for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the air fryer breaded chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauces or on their own.
Please keep in mind that you can modify the seasonings to your taste. To improve the flavor of the chicken wings, feel free to add more spices or herbs to the flour mixture.
