I actually surprised myself. I was not expecting to fall in love with these easy steakhouse wings. Heck, I thought they’d be too ‘steak-saucy’. You know, like that time as a kid when you dumped half a bottle of steak sauce on your steak at Howard Johnsons. Ok, maybe that was just me. But still, too much steak sauce is…. too much… for me. But not here. I loved these wings. I went light on the sauce and the flavor came out perfect.
Air-Fried Wings Or Whatever Wings
I made a batch of my standard air-fried wings when I made some easy steakhouse wings for lunch. You can also toss them into the oven at 400 F for 30-40 minutes. Or deep fry them. Whatever you want. The key here is to make wings that aren’t going to ‘fight’ the steak sauce. No fancy seasonings. Keep it simple. Salt and pepper is all you need. Just like cooking a steak, fancy is not required.
Also try my fiery catalina wings.
Easy Steakhouse Wings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 chicken wings flats and drumettes separated, tips saved to make stock

Instructions
- Lightly spray the basket of your air fryer with non-stick spray. Preheat per manufacturer’s recommendation.
- Toss the wing flats and drumettes with salt and pepper.
- Add the wings to the basket (be careful it’s hot!). If you have trouble fitting them without overlapping, stand the drumettes along the sides of the basket.
- Cook at 360 F for 12 minutes for large wings, 10 minutes for smaller ones.
- Carefully flip the wings (rotate the drumettes if they are standing) and cook another 12 minutes again (10 minutes for smaller wings) at 375 F.
- Flip the wings one last time. Increase the temperature to 390 F and cook another 6 minutes (4 minutes for smaller wings).
- Remove wings to a bowl and drizzle with steak sauce. Toss to coat.
