How To Make Air Fryer Salt And Vinegar Wings

Step One: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, then place them in a large bowl.

Step Two: Drizzle the wings with olive oil and toss to coat. Add salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and dried thyme (if using). Toss again to evenly coat the wings.

Step Three: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking, until the wings are crispy.

Step Four: Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and immediately drizzle with white vinegar. Toss to coat the wings evenly. Serve the wings hot with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!

Air Fryer Salt and Vinegar Wings Recipe Tips

🍋 Adjust the Vinegar: For a more intense tang, add a little extra vinegar after cooking. Start with a small amount and adjust to your taste.

🥓 Use Fresh Wings: Fresh wings work best for achieving crispy skin. If using frozen wings, make sure to thaw them completely for even cooking.

⏲️ Check for Crispiness: Air fryer models vary, so check your wings halfway through cooking and flip them for even crispiness. If needed, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

🌿 Season to Taste: Feel free to add your favorite seasonings like smoked paprika or cayenne pepper for extra flavor and a little heat.

🔥 Don’t Overcrowd the Basket: For the crispiest wings, ensure they’re in a single layer with some space between them. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking.

🧼 Clean Your Air Fryer: The vinegar can create some sticky residue, so clean your air fryer basket thoroughly after cooking to keep it in top condition.

Storing, Freezing & Reheating

📦 Storing: After the wings cool, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

❄️ Freezing: To freeze, arrange the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container and store for up to 2-3 months.

🔥 Reheating: Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for about 5-6 minutes until crispy and heated through. Alternatively, you can reheat in the oven at 375°F for 8-10 minutes.

What To Serve With Air Fryer Salt And Vinegar Wings

Air Fryer Salt and Vinegar Wings pair wonderfully with a variety of sides to complete your meal. Serve them alongside crispy fries or sweet potato fries for a classic pub-style combo.
