A sports bar favorite comes home with these deliciously crispy chicken wings in the air fryer, which require just 10 minutes of active prep time.
Ingredients
1 ½ teaspoons paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground pepper
3 ½ to 4 pounds chicken wings, separated if necessary
½ cup buffalo-style hot sauce (such as frank's redhot)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup ranch dressing
2 carrots, cut into sticks
1 stalk celery, cut into sticks
Directions
Preheat oven to 200°F. Preheat air fryer to 375°F. Combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper in a large bowl. Add wings and toss to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes.
Add half of the wings to the air-fryer basket; cook for 15 minutes. Turn the wings; continue to cook until they're crispy and a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 165°F, about 5 minutes. Arrange the wings in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet; transfer to the oven to keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining wings.
Cook hot sauce and butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, whisking often, until the butter melts and the mixture is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
Transfer the wings to a large bowl. Add the butter sauce and toss to coat. Serve alongside ranch dressing, carrots and celery.
