Air Fryer Chipotle Lime Wings

Cook Time30 minutes
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: American
Keyword: air fryer
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings split into drumettes and flats
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons chipotle powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Step 1: Prep the wings

  • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Removing excess moisture helps them crisp up beautifully in the air fryer.

Step 2: Season generously

  • In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, chipotle powder, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until they’re evenly coated.

Step 3: Arrange in the air fryer

  • Place the wings in a single layer in your air fryer basket, leaving a little space between each one so the air can circulate.

Step 4: Cook to perfection

  • Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.

Step 5: Serve and enjoy

  • Pile the wings onto a platter, squeeze over a little extra lime if you like, and serve immediately while they’re sizzling hot.
