3. Cooking the Wings
- Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. It’s important not to overcrowd the basket to allow air to circulate freely around each wing, ensuring even cooking and crisping. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Spray the breaded wings lightly with cooking spray. This helps achieve a golden color and crispy texture.
- Cook for about 22-25 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through the cooking time and spraying the other side lightly with cooking spray. The wings are done when they are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. Serving
- Rest the wings for a few minutes after cooking. This allows the juices to redistribute, making your chicken wings juicier.
- Serve your crispy air fryer breaded chicken wings hot with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese, or a spicy buffalo sauce.
Tips
- Seasoning Variations: Feel free to experiment with different spices in your breadcrumb mixture to match your taste preferences. Adding grated Parmesan to the breadcrumb mix can also add a nice flavor.
- Crispiness: If you prefer an extra crispy texture, you can increase the cooking time by a few minutes. Just keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Reheating: Air fryer chicken wings reheat well. Just pop them back in the air fryer at 380°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes until heated through and crispy again.
Enjoy your delicious and crispy air fryer breaded chicken wings, perfect for game day, family dinners, or any occasion that calls for a tasty treat!
