Ingredients

Instructions

Air Fryer

  • Drizzle the soy sauce over the chicken. This will help produce juicy chicken and adds flavor. 
  • Season the chicken with the onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper to taste.
  • Place the chicken in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary. Do not stack.
  • Air fry for 15 minutes at 400 degrees.
  • Open the air fryer and flip the chicken. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes. Ensure the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Use a meat thermometer.
  • Remove the chicken from the air fryer. Glaze each piece of chicken with buffalo wing sauce.
  • If you prefer sauce that is baked into the wings, return the chicken to the air fryer. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Cool before serving.

Baking

  • Follow the same seasoning instructions above.
  • Bake for 40-50 minutes on 375 degrees until the chicken is crisp.

Notes

Consider marinating your chicken wings.
You can make the chicken wings as spicy as you like or not spicy at all. Add cayenne pepper for spicy wings.
Pay attention to the state of the chicken while cooking and determine how long it will need to cook. Every air fryer is different and cook times will not match exactly. Always use a meat thermometer to test the temperature for accuracy and safety.
