Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

  3. Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them to ensure even cooking.
  4. Cook the wings for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time for maximum crispiness.
