Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F) for 4 minutes.

Pat the chicken wings dry thoroughly with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness.

Place wings in a large mixing bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and toss to coat evenly.

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using.

Sprinkle the seasoning blend over the wings and toss until they are evenly coated.

Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd—cook in batches if necessary.

Air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 11 minutes. Flip the wings with tongs and cook for another 11 minutes, until crispy and golden.

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

For extra crispy wings, ensure they are very dry before seasoning.

If your air fryer is small, cook in multiple batches to avoid overcrowding.

You can toss cooked wings in buffalo sauce, BBQ sauce, or leave plain.
