- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F. Once heated, lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Pat the chicken wings dry using paper towels, then transfer them into a large mixing bowl.
- Toss the wings with olive oil, paprika, and garlic powder, ensuring they're evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they don’t touch.
- Cook the wings at 380°F for 10 minutes, then raise the temperature to 400°F and continue cooking for another 6-8 minutes, until they’re golden and crispy.
- Once done, garnish the wings with chopped parsley and serve with ranch dressing on the side if desired.
Storage Tips
