Cooking is a passion of mine. These great moods have been yielding some pretty great, quick and easy recipes, including these Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Breaded Fried Chicken Wings.

I am so happy to be able to make fried chicken again, now that I have an Air Fryer. I gave up on cooking fried chicken years ago when I committed to a healthier lifestyle. That does NOT mean I stopped eating fried chicken! You can definitely catch me treating myself from time to time at Popeye’s Chicken!
Every Air Fryer recipe I have made thus far has been so quick and easy! I can’t remember the last time I cooked this much on weeknights! This is definitely a great meal for weeknight dinners.

Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Breaded Fried Chicken Wings
Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Breaded Fried Chicken Wings is a quick and easy low-fat recipe for crispy and crunchy chicken wings.
Ingredients
- 16 chicken wings drummettes (party wings)
- cooking spray
- 1/4 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 cup parmesan grated
- 1 tsp parmesan
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- McCormicks Grill Mates Chicken Seasoning to taste
- pepper to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
-
Wash and pat dry the chicken. Drizzle the soy sauce over the chicken. Season the chicken with the seasonings. Place in a Ziploc bag and in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes. I prefer overnight.
-
Once the chicken has marinated, add the flour and 1/4 cup of parmesan to a separate Ziploc bag.
-
Pour the buttermilk into a bowl large enough to dunk the chicken. Coat each of the pieces of chicken with buttermilk and add it to the Ziploc bag with the flour. Shake to thoroughly coat the chicken.
-
Spray the pan with cooking oil.
-
Using tongs, remove the chicken from the bag and place on the air fryer pan. It's ok to stack the chicken on top of each other. Spray cooking spray over the top of the chicken.
-
Set the timer on the air fryer for 20 minutes at a temperature of 400 degrees.
-
Allow the chicken to cook for 5 minutes. Remove the pan and shake the chicken to ensure all of the pieces are fully cooked.
-
Allow the chicken to cook and repeat the shaking every 5 minutes until the 20 minutes has passed.
-
Cool before serving.
-
Garnish with the remaining parmesan.

I don’t have an air fryer, but I think this recipe is changing my mind. I always end up burned by oil so I only fry when I have to.

As a passionate lover of chicken wings, I can assure you that this is the best recipe I’ve tried! Is there any alternative to the soy sauce?
staysnatched
You can use something like olive oil. Soy sauce is for added flavor.
Lex
WHat can you ise in replace of the buttermilk?
staysnatched
It will depend on why you want to sub out the buttermilk. Egg whites can also be used.
Dale Challinor
I have an air fryer and find it really great, quick, economical, & easy to clean. I do not have many recipes so this recipe will help me and they look great.
staysnatched
Awesome! Thank you. I think you are going to love your air fryer!

When you shake the wings every 5 min does that shake the flour coating off. ?
staysnatched
It can if you shake too hard. Flip them with tongs to avoid the coating coming off.
