Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Method
 

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry using paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the wings with olive oil, garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
  4. Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the chicken wings and toss again.
  5. Place the seasoned wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding.
  6. Air fry the wings for 25–30 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  7. Once they are crispy and golden, remove the wings and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with additional Parmesan and parsley if you’d like.

Notes

For an added flavor twist, consider using smoked paprika. Serve with a cooling dip like ranch or a zesty hot sauce to balance out the savory richness.
