Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb chicken wings split into flats and drums
  • 1 tbsp aluminium-free baking powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp avocado or olive oil
  • 1-1.5 tsp truffle salt
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary finely chopped, or 1 tsp dried
  • red pepper flakes optional

Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Large bowl
  • Wire rack
  • Small saucepan

Method
 

  1. Pat the wings bone-dry. Toss with the baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper, then chill uncovered 30 to 60 minutes.
  2. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Toss the wings with the oil. Arrange in a single layer with space and cook 24 to 28 minutes total, flipping at 12 to 14, until golden with rendered fat.
  4. Raise to 400°F for 4 to 6 minutes.
  5. Toss the hot wings with the truffle salt and rosemary.

Notes

The uncovered chill is what unlocks the next-level crunch; skip it only if you're hangry.
Truffle salt at the end — heat kills the aroma.
Blister at 400°F for the last few minutes.
