Tips for Making the Best and Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings
- Preheat your air fryer. This will help cook your chicken wings evenly. You can learn more about preheating your air fryer here.
- Pat dry your chicken wings before cooking them – any moisture on the wings will cause them to taste soggier. We’re going for crispy so just give them a quick pat with a paper towel.
- Cook your chicken wings in one layer in the air fryer, not touching. This gives the best crispiness and lets the wings cook evenly.
- Crank the heat up to 400 degrees for the last few minutes of cooking. This is a fun trick to really get the skin nice and crispy.
