Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Wings

Everyone’s favorite dish, Air Fryer BBQ Chicken Wings. They are excellent in the air fryer. And they make a great appetizer or a quick lunch. My kids love them while we are watching any game, whether hockey, football, or baseball.

BBQ Chicken Wings in the air fryer they are amazingly crispy and entirely smothered by BBQ sauce. They are a great appetizer, especially with the holidays coming up. I made a batch for my family’s reunion this year, and everyone loved them.

This BBQ chicken wing recipe is easy to make and cook up in no air fryer time.

As I have been experimenting with my air fryer, I have found that I now add baking powder to my wings, which will help them crips up. If you use any of my other recipes (although I have been updating them), you will notice I did not mention baking powder, but as I continue my air frying journey, I learn and learn more every day, probably just like you.
