Looking for the perfect Super Bowl party recipe? These Easy Air Fryer Chicken Wings are perfect for any occasion! Try the Buffalo, Teriyaki, or Thai Chili flavor!
Air Fryer Magic
If you read my last Super Bowl recipe, I confessed that I really am just here for the food. I love all of the savory dips, football-shaped brownies, and of course the chicken wings. I have been waiting for the right time to release an air fryer chicken wing recipe, and what better time than the Super Bowl? If you don’t have an Air Fryer, you can Amazon Prime it here just in time for the big day! You’re not going to want to miss this recipe. The Air Fryer creates a crispy texture for the wings that you normally would get from a deep fryer. Essentially, you can have dive-bar style chicken wings from the comfort of your own home! How amazing is that?
Not Just One
When I first contemplated creating this recipe, I was going to make buffalo chicken wings. Everyone loves buffalo chicken. However, I just posted the other Super Bowl recipe, my most requested, 15-Minute Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Dip. I figured it was only fair that I provider a few other sauce options, in the off chance there is someone out there who does not like buffalo sauce. 😉 I’m glad I did because these are probably my new three favorite chicken sauces that I have ever made! I discovered a secret through some recent recipe testing that makes these sauces legit. The secret? Check out the recipe to find out!
