How to make Air Fryer Old Bay Chicken Wings

This crispy skin is thanks to an extra step and a secret ingredient, which apparently is no longer a secret after this post 😉

First pat 1 1/2 pounds of jumbo split chicken wings dry with paper towels, like as dry as you can get them.

This should be about 12 wings total.

Put them in a bowl and add baking powder… yes, baking powder.

It dries the chicken skin creating that crisp that we desire.

Next add 1 1/2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning along with some kosher salt and pepper.

Go light on the salt and pepper because Old Bay does already have a good amount of salt,

And simply toss them together in a bowl.

Then place them in a single layer in your air fryer basket.

I wish I could say there’s more to it than this, but it really is just that easy.

Just set the air fryer to 390 degrees for 24 to 26 minutes.
