Did you know you can cook frozen wings in your air fryer and they are ready in less than 30 minutes!? You can have crispy chicken wings anytime you want! It’s such an easy recipe!

I really love chicken wings! But I always forget to defrost them. Or I hate that I have to stand over my grill for an hour while they cook or I have to heat my oven to make wings – which also heats up my house!

There are many reasons I love my air fryer! It makes things extra crispy, I don’t have to use oil to cook, and it doesn’t heat up my house. I have several air fryer recipes that are quick and easy and very flavorful! Now I can add air fryer frozen chicken wings to my list of delicious air fryer foods!

This recipe is so simple! All you need is a little bit of olive oil, your favorite seasoning, and frozen chicken wings. I love Everglades Seasoning. I can find it at my local Publix store and it’s my favorite dry rub to add to my crispy wings! (You can check out their store locator to see if it’s sold near you!)

How to enjoy these air fryer wings:

• We love Everglades Seasoning it has just the right spices that go perfect with the crispy skin. I prefer naked wings so I can enjoy the seasoning and the crispiness!
• Enjoy it with your favorite dipping sauce like buffalo sauce, BBQ sauce, hot sauce, just add your favorite wing sauce and you will have delicious wings!
• Add some spices that you have in your cabinet like salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, etc.
• Need some good side dishes? Don’t forget to serve it with some carrots and celery sticks and add some ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing for dipping!

And if you have another air fryer you can make some air fryer tater tots too! If not use the oven to make these amazing totchos! 

I really love my air fryer because the cooking time is much faster than other cooking methods, I get the best results without all that added oil, no deep frying is required!

This chicken wings recipe is an easy way to make the perfect appetizer or meal for 2. The cooking process is simple and fast!

Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings

Prep time: 2 minutes Cook time: 25 minutes

• 7-10 frozen chicken wings (The number of wings will depend on the size of the wings and the size of your air fryer)
• If necessary for your air fryer, a little cooking spray or a little extra virgin olive oil. (The bottom of the basket may get a little gross if you don’t add something.)
• Your favorite spices or dipping sauce

How to make delicious air fryer chicken wings

Place wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. The cooked wings will shrink a little so you can let them touch for the first 10 minutes. If you are using seasoning, you can sprinkle some on it now. But wait until the end if you are using your favorite sauce.

Cook for 10 minutes at 400 degrees f.

After the first 10 minutes, flip the chicken wings and season the other side. Set the air fryer to 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Flip the wings after every 5 minutes of cooking.

Use a meat thermometer to check if they are done. The chicken wings are cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165*. If they are not fully cooked – flip them and add an additional 5 minutes at 400 degrees.

Store any leftover chicken wings in an airtight container for up to 2 days. (But you will probably not have leftovers!)

These are the best chicken wings! If you want to use fresh chicken wings, you can check out this chicken wing recipe. The unfrozen, fresh wings take about 10 minutes less time to cook. The air fryer makes really juicy wings that everyone will love.

Air fry chicken wings are the best kind of wings! Air frying makes them taste better and cook faster. Plus you don’t have to use a deep fryer or convection oven. This is my preferred method to make chicken wings and it’s an easy last minute recipe! It’s a simple recipe so I can be eating in less than 30 minutes!
