Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 24 chicken wings
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup BBQ sauce
  • olive oil in a spray bottle

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Air Fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare the Air Fryer basket with olive oil spray. 
  • Rinse and pat the wings untl they are completely dry. 
  • Mix the garlic and brown sugar together, and then use as a dry rub over the wings. For extra crispy wings, add a pinch of baking powder to the seasoning.
  • Place wings in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer.
  • Cook on 380 degrees Fahrenheit for 16 minutes, flipping every 4 minutes. Increase the heat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for an additional 4 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the wings have reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Add 1-2 minutes at 400 if needed.
  • Remove the chicken wings from the air fryer basket and place them into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Cover the wings with the BBQ sauce and then toss the wings until they are completely coated in sauce. 
  • Serve with your favorite sides and dipping sauces.

Notes

  1. Serve with dipping sauces such as creamy ranch, honey mustard, and extra BBQ sauce. 
  2. To make the skin extra crispy, add a pinch of baking powder to the seasoning before placing the rub on the chicken wings.
