Ingredients

your favorite brand of lemon-pepper seasoning season to taste
2 lbs fresh chicken wings
1 tablespoon olive oil *or olive oil cooking spray for newer model air fryers

Instructions

In a large bowl, generously toss wings with lemon pepper to coat (the amount is up to you...we like a lot of seasoning).
For The Actifry:
Place wings in the air fryer with the tablespoon of oil and cook for 30-40 minutes (the Actifry cookbook says 25-30, but that wasn't at all done enough for us...we like the skin crispy!)
For Newer Model Air Fryers (always check your appliance for recommended cooking instructions since they do vary):
Spray wings with olive oil cooking spray (you can also brush the oil on the wings with a pastry brush) and toss with lemon pepper to coat.
Place wings in the air fryer basket, leaving space in between the wings to circulate air.
Cook at 400 degrees F. for 20-25 minutes.

Notes

Don't have an air fryer? No worries, you can make these wings in the oven. Just toss wings in olive oil and sprinkle generously with lemon pepper. Bake at 425 degrees F for 30 minutes, turn and cook 15 minutes more until crispy. Serve and enjoy.
