Ingredients
  

  • 0.907 pounds chicken wings
  • 2.0 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1.0 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1.0 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1.0 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1.0 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1.0 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2.0 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2.0 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 0.473 gallons chicken broth
  • 1.0 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1.0 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • None to taste salt and pepper
  • None for garnish fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to mix well.
  • Add olive oil to the spice mixture, then toss the chicken wings in the mixture until they are well-coated.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
  • Air fry for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy. Check for doneness; the internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  • While the chicken wings are cooking, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Once melted, whisk in the flour to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes until it turns golden brown, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  • Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, mixing until smooth. Add soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Bring the gravy to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Once the wings are cooked and crispy, transfer them to a serving platter.
  • Drizzle or spoon the gravy generously over the wings.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and fresh flavor.
  • Serve your golden air fryer chicken wings with savory gravy hot, alongside your favorite dipping sauces or sides.
