Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wingettes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 whole Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).
Pat dry the chicken wingettes with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
Add the chicken wingettes to the bowl and toss them with the olive oil mixture until evenly coated.
Sprinkle baking powder over the chicken and mix until it's completely incorporated. This will help the wings become crispy.
Place the wingettes in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overlapping. Cook in batches if necessary.
Air fry the wingettes for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.
Remove the wingettes from the air fryer and let them cool slightly.
Serve with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy your crispy, low-carb air fried wingettes!
