Ingrédients

  • Nonstick cooking spray

Beer-Battered Chicken Wings:

  • 2 pounds chicken wings, tips removed, drumettes and flats separated
  • ½ cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup light beer
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt

Plain Chicken Wings:

  • 2 pounds chicken wings, tips removed, drumettes and flats separated
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt

Many wings already come separated into flats and drumettes but, if only full wings are available, be sure to remove the tips and separate into two pieces.

Preparation

  1. Place the Air Fryer Basket onto the Baking Pan. Spray the basket with the nonstick cooking spray. Reserve.

If beer battering the wings: 

  1. In a large bowl combine the flour and beer.
  2. Sprinkle wings with salt and put them into the bowl with the batter.
  3. Coat wings in the batter and transfer to the basket.

If not beer-battering wings: 

  1. Put the chicken wings into the basket. Sprinkle with salt.
  2. Put the assembled pan into Rack Position 2.
  3. Set to Air Fry at 400°F for 20 minutes. Cook until golden and crispy.
  4. When chicken wings are done, toss immediately in sauce or add the toppings of your choice, such as butter, garlic, fresh herbs or spices.

Note: Chicken wings may also be purchased already cut. They are often referred to as "party wings" or "winglets."
