Ingredients

  • 6-8 large bone in chicken wings frozen

Instructions

  • Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick spray and place the frozen chicken wings in the basket.
  • Cook frozen chicken wings for 15 minutes at 370 degrees.
  • Flip over the chicken wings and cook for an additional 15 minutes at 400 degrees.
  • While the chicken wings are cooking you can make whatever sauce you plan to coat them in. Simple combine all sauce ingredients in a small-medium sized bowl and whisk well!
  • When the wings are done place them in a large bowl and pour sauce of choice over them. Toss the wings in the sauce to coat evenly.
  • Optional: You can place the wings back in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes for additional crispy.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Sauces: May also use store bought sauces such as BBQ to coat wings. Dry rubs will also work for adding flavor to your air fryer frozen chicken wings.
Buffalo Sauce: 1/2 cup frank’s red hot + 2 tbsp. melted butter + 1/2 tsp garlic powder + dash of salt
Sweet Chili: 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce + 3 tbsp. honey
Creamy Ranch: 1 packet ranch dressing mix + 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt + 1/4 cup milk.
Garlic Parmesan: 1  tbsp. garlic powder + 1/4 cup parmesan cheese + 2 tbsp. melted butter + 2 tsp onion powder + dash of salt
Storage: I store these in a container in the fridge for 5-7 days, however they are best eaten day-of as they are the crispiest at that time
From fresh: To make chicken wings from fresh simply reduce time cooked at 400 to 5-10 minutes.
