Well, here I go again. Another wing variation that I just cannot get enough of. Give me an excuse to use a lot of Parmesan and I’m going to go all-in. And that’s what I did with these crispy air fryer Parmesan wings. Perfectly crunchy bite-thru skin. Like crazy perfect. Great by itself, but add an easy garlic-flavored Parmesan topping and I’m going full bulldog on it. I loved these wings. They are perfect!
Oh So Cheesy!
The original recipe for these crispy air fryer Parmesan wings called for adding chives. I love chives. Chives would’ve been great on these wings. But sadly, no chives were to be found near me. So I went with just a little parsley, mostly for color. I was ok without the chives since I was in town for the Parmesan!
Nice and Crispy
You can use the approach in this recipe for making crispy skin on any air fryer wing recipe. Whether you are using a store-bought seasoning or just salt and pepper, add a bit of baking soda before cooking the wings.
