Ingredients:

  • 1 package (24 oz) Banquet Bone-In Wings (flavor of your choice)
  • Cooking spray (optional)
  • Your favorite dipping sauce (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Gently separate the frozen wings in the bag, ensuring they’re not stuck together.
  3. Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each wing for even air circulation. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  4. Lightly spray the wings with cooking spray for extra crispiness (optional).
  5. Air fry for 20-25 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Cook until the wings are golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!

Tips:

  • For extra crispy wings, pat the wings dry with paper towels before air frying.
  • If your wings seem crowded, cook them in batches for optimal airflow and crispness.
  • During the last few minutes of cooking, you can crank up the air fryer temperature to 425°F (220°C) for an extra crispy finish.

FAQs:

Do I need to thaw the wings before air frying? No, the beauty of this recipe is you can cook the wings straight from frozen. However, for slightly faster cooking times, you can thaw the wings in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour before air frying.

Can I use a different flavor of Banquet Wings? Absolutely! This recipe works well with any flavor of Banquet Bone-In Wings.

What dipping sauces go well with these wings? Classic options like buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, or BBQ sauce are always a hit. You can also get creative with your favorite sauces or experiment with homemade dipping recipes.

How long will these wings stay crispy? These wings are best enjoyed fresh out of the air fryer. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes to restore crispness.

Enjoy these delicious Air Fryer Banquet Bone-In Wings and let the air fryer do all the work for perfectly crispy, juicy wings every time!
