Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings
• 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 0 olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings and buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight to marinate.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, mix together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, gluten-free breadcrumbs, baking powder, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.

Step 3

Remove the marinated chicken wings from the fridge and drain the excess buttermilk.

Step 4

Dredge each wing in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Lightly shake off the excess flour.

Step 5

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.

Step 6

Place the coated wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook in batches.

Step 7

Spray the wings lightly with olive oil spray for extra crispiness.

Step 8

Air fry the chicken wings for 12 minutes, then carefully flip them over and continue frying for another 12-13 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

After cooking, use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches at least 165°F (74°C).

Step 10

Serve the gluten-free crispy air-fried chicken wings hot with your favorite dipping sauce or garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
