Tips for Making Extra Crispy Air Fryer Chicken Wings:
Spray the Air Fryer basket with cooking spray before adding the chicken. It helps prevent sticking, and the tiny bit of oil makes the wings extra crisp.
Start the wings at a lower temperature and then increase the heat for the last 5-15 minutes to get them extra crispy. The total time will vary depending on how big your wings are.
Shake the basket throughout the cooking process to help the chicken wings brown more evenly.
