Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Pat the Chicken ingredients thoroughly dry with paper towels to ensure crispy skin, then toss with vegetable oil.
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) and arrange wings in a single layer, air-frying for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Increase the air fryer temperature to 400°F (204°C) and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Combine all Dry Rub ingredients in a small bowl, then toss the hot wings in the mixture until evenly coated before serving.
