Making them in the Airfryer
I have found that the air fryer is great for cooking wings. To ensure they come out perfectly crispy, follow these steps: First, spray your wings with cooking oil. Then, cook them at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, flip them, spray them again, and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Making them in the oven
Baking chicken wings in the oven is the ideal method for serving large groups of people. To ensure the wings remain crispy, it’s essential to use a baking rack. This allows the juices to drain to the bottom of the pan, resulting in extra crispy wings.
Making them in the Deep Fryer
If you want your wings extra crunchy, juicy, and hot, my favorite method is to dry them. While this won’t save you any time or calories, these wings are the best and most savory when fried.
