In a large bowl, toss the 1 pound chicken wings with 1 Tablespoon of oil and 2 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and ¼ teaspoon paprika over the wings and toss again to coat thoroughly.
Preheat a 6 quart air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.
Lightly oil the air fryer basket with the remaining oil.
Arrange the wings in a single layer and bake for 12 minutes.
Flip the wings and bake for an additional 10–12 minutes, or until crispy and cooked through.
Use a pastry brush to coat the wings in the garlic butter sauce made from ¼ cup (½ stick) salted butter, melted, ⅛ cup chopped flat leaf parsley, ⅛ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and 3 cloves garlic, minced.
Return to the air fryer and bake for 1 more minute. Continue with remaining wings.
Notes
Please refer to my FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions) and ingredient list above for other substitutions or for the answers to the most common questions.
I usually buy whole chicken wings, then separate them into drumettes and flats and trim off the wing tips myself. You can also buy pre-cut drumettes or flats if that’s what you prefer.
