Ingredients

  • 1 lb. frozen chicken wings or about 500 gm.
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 3 tbsp. bbq sauce

Directions

  1. Pre-heat the Air fryer at 390 C or 200 C for about 4 minutes. Take frozen wings straight out of the packet and place them in one layer in the airfryer.
  2. I had whole wings that is drumettes, wingettes and tips. Since these were sold frozen, they were not portioned out.
  3. I put in the frozen wings and air fried for 10 minutes. The wings thawed out quite a bit by then.
  4. I pulled them apart and separated the drumettes and wingettes. The tips were discarded or used later for stock.
  5. Sprinkle baking powder all over them and air fry for 12-15 minutes more till crispy.
  6. The wings were crispy at the end of about 15 minutes. Also all the fat drained down making them healthier.
  7. In case your wings need more time, you can air fry for 3 minutes more at 390F.
  8. Dunk them into Bbq sauce so that they are coated well. Air fry for another 4-5 minutes at 390F till nice and sticky. Serve hot with mint chutney or chipotle mayo.
