Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 1.25 lb chicken wings individually frozen wing parts (these are usually party wings, wingettes, or flats and drums available at places like Trader Joes)
  • 1 tsp steak seasoning
  • 2 tbsp bbq chicken rub
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • cup bourbon bbq sauce I pick this up from the market

Instructions
 

  • Add the frozen chicken wing pieces, seasoning, dry rub, and the avocado oil to a large bowl. Use tongs to evenly coat the chicken. Since the wings are frozen, this might require some extra tossing, but try to get as much seasoning on the wings as possible.
  • Preheat the air fryer at 400 degrees for 5-6 minutes.
  • Add the seasoned chicken wings to the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  • Air fry at 400 for 8 minutes.
  • Flip the wings. Air Fry at 400 degrees for 7 more minutes.
  • Flip the wings again. Air Fry at 400 degrees for 5 minutes.
  • Coat the wings with bbq sauce. Air Fry at 400 degrees for 5 more minutes to cook the wings through. Baste the wings with more sauce before serving.
