Air-Fried Chicken Wings

These air fryer wings are super easy and super crispy. If you've never made a batch of homemade wings in your air fryer, you are in for a treat.

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2lbs of frozen chicken wings (aim for high quality)
  • Salt
  • 2-3 tbsp of tallow
  • Pan
  • Large bowl
  • Stovetop or burner
  • Air fryer

Instructions

  1. Put a small pan on a burner with some tallow (a chunk or tablespoon) in it. Turn the knob to medium-low. You just want to melt the tallow. 
  2. Once the tallow is melted, put the chicken wings in a bowl. Then pour the warm tallow all over the chicken wings. Try to get the tallow to cover all surfaces of the chicken. 
  3. Then place the chicken into your air fryer (Ninja preferably). Space out the chicken evenly as best you can so there will be plenty of hot air circulating on the tops/sides of the wings.
  4. Set the temperature to 390°F for 10 minutes. 
  5. Flip the wings after that set time.
  6. And then another 10 minutes at 390°F. 
  7. Check the temperature of the wings. They should be around 155°F but if they're not continue cooking them.
  8. Salt the chicken and devour them! (you can salt prior to cooking, just experiment with it).
