Ingredients
  

2 lbs chicken wings

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon dried oregano

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: Red pepper flakes (for a spicy kick)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken Wings: Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Removing excess moisture is key for achieving crispiness.

    Season the Wings: In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, salt, and dried oregano. Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them until they are well coated with the seasoning mixture.

      Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes. This step ensures your wings start cooking immediately when you place them in.

        Air Fry the Wings: Arrange the seasoned wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd them. If necessary, cook in batches. Air fry the wings for 25-30 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.

          Add the Parmesan: Once the wings are golden and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and place them back in the mixing bowl. Add the grated Parmesan cheese while the wings are still hot and toss until the cheese is melted and well distributed.

            Garnish and Serve: Transfer the garlic Parmesan wings to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and, if desired, sprinkle red pepper flakes for an extra kick. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
