Notes

  • If the wings are stuck together and unseasoned, you can run them under the tap to separate into individual pieces or put them in the air fryer and air fry for few minutes when they'll then be easy to separate.
  • Adjust the pepper quantity stated in this recipe to suit your taste. Increase the quantity if you like it hotter or reduce quantity if you prefer it less spicy.
  • Place the chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don't overlap them so they are able to cook evenly.
  • As air fryer brands vary and so do their temperature settings, you might have to adjust the cooking time stated in this recipe.
