I am absolutely obsessed with making wings in the air fryer! I love how crispy the skin gets and how juicy the chicken is when it's done.

These wings are packed full of flavor. The chicken is seasoned, the breading is seasoned and the parmesan garlic butter sauce is the topping on the cake.

My family usually eats these wings without dipping sauce because they're so flavorful, but ranch or pizza sauce are great for this recipe. We also love The Best Pomodoro Sauce to dip them in!

We've served these wings for parties and holidays, but they always make an easy and delicious weeknight dinner too. My youngest loves these wings, with or without the sauce. They taste great either way.

Recipe tips:

  • We own a Ninja air fryer and these cook in about 18 minutes to the crispiness we love! Different brands may heat differently and wing sizes vary, so adjust the time or temperature accordingly and use a meat thermometer if you're unsure. You'll want the wings to be super crispy so the sauce coats them and doesn't make them soggy.
