When I Use an AIR FRYER
I don’t like deep-frying in my house. It’s a lot of work, makes a huge mess, and makes my house smell like McDonald’s for a week. No offense, Ronald. Now, with the innovation of mini air fryers, we can make the same crispy food without deep-frying or turning on the oven for an hour.
I think the air fryer has one use: simulating deep-fried foods. I won’t break it down for every recipe, but the wings, if they are not grilled, are in the air fryer. You would not get a crisper arm than this. Air fryer wings come in a variety of flavors, one of which is the incredible garlic parmesan butter sauce.

A Guide: How to Air Fryer Cooking Wings

Step 2: After putting the wings in a bowl, season them with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step 3: Put them into the 18-minute air fryer. In ten minutes, flip them over and return them to the air fryer.
