How to cook deliciously - Air-Fryer Chicken Wings

1. Stage

Preheat the air fryer to 300°. In a large bowl, whisk together the garlic powder, garlic salt, mustard, ginger, nutmeg, pepper, allspice, baking soda and cayenne.

2. Stage

Use a sharp, thin knife to separate the wings into three parts: the tip, the wingette and the drumette. Remove and discard the wing tip sections. Editor's Tip: Use your finger to locate the joint. If you're having trouble, wiggle the two pieces back and forth to help you find the sweet spot where the two bones meet.

3. Stage

Find the joint between each of the wingettes and drumettes. Slice through it to separate the sections.

4. Stage

Add the wingettes and drumettes to the bowl with the spice rub. Stir to coat. Editor's Tip: Before tossing in the dry rub, pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel. Removing excess moisture will help the wings crisp up.

5. Stage

Lightly grease your air-fryer basket to prevent sticking. In batches, arrange the wings in a single layer in the basket. Air-fry the wings for 15 minutes. Increase the air-fryer temperature to 400°. Cook until the chicken juices run clear and wings are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes, turning once. Repeat the process with the remaining wings. Serve hot, with dressing or sauce if desired. Editor's Tip: Air-fryer cook times can vary dramatically between air-fryer brands. Start checking the chicken at the lower temperature range. You can use a meat thermometer to make sure they reach 165°F.
