Ingredients

  • 10 to 12 raw chicken wings
  • 1/2 cup olive oil or melted salted butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Master Cookbook Recipe # 597 Chris’s Special Seasoning
  • All-purpose or self-rising flour (for dredging)

Instructions

  1. Prep: Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels. Removing moisture is the secret to getting them extra crispy.
  2. Season: Sprinkle the wings generously with salt, pepper, and Chris’s Special Seasoning.
  3. Coat: Toss the seasoned wings in the oil or melted butter until they are well coated.
  4. Dredge: Lightly dredge each wing in flour. You want a thin, even coating,not a heavy batter.
  5. First Bake: Place the wings in the air fryer basket. Cook at 380°F for 20 minutes.
  6. Flip: Carefully turn the wings over to ensure even browning.
  7. Final Bake: Cook for an additional 20 minutes. Cook until they are deep golden brown and as crispy as you like them.
  8. Serve: Remove from the air fryer and toss in your favorite wing sauce, or serve the sauce on the side to keep that southern-style crunch!

Notes

  • The Crunch Factor: Using a light dusting of flour combined with the oil/butter creates a "fried" texture that holds up even if you toss them in sauce later.
  • Well Done: These are "Southern Style" wings, meaning they are cooked longer than average to ensure the skin is rendered and the meat is tender.
  • Pro Tip: If you're making a larger batch, don't overcrowd the basket. Cook in batches if necessary so the air can circulate properly for maximum crunch.
