SUPER BOWL SNACK #1
It wouldn’t be a Super Bowl Party without some Buffalo Chicken wings! Instead of going deep frying them we use the air fryer to get that crispy finish with a high protein Buffalo sauce! Lets go!!
Healthy Buffalo Chicken Wings
These healthy air fryer buffalo wings are incredibly crispy and so easy to make. This recipe is only four ingredients!
Ingredients
For the Chicken Wings:
- 2-3 lbs. of chicken wingettes, (see note 1)
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1/4 tsp. salt
For the Buffalo Sauce:
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 2 Tbsp. plain Greek yogurt
Instructions
1. Pre-heat Air Fryer: Make sure the air fryer is preheated at 390°F for at least 3 minutes prior to cooking the wings. This ensures maximum crispiness!
2. Prep Wings: Lay the wings out on paper towels and pat them dry. The drier the wings, the crispier they’ll be! Put the wings in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the salt over the wings and add the olive oil. Using your hands, toss the wings until they’re coated with the olive oil.
3. Air Fry: Air fry the wings at 390°F for 24-26 minutes flipping the wings halfway through.
4. Make Sauce: While the wings are cooking, in a small bowl whisk together the buffalo sauce and plain Greek yogurt.
5. Toss is Sauce: Once the wings are done cooking, put them in a medium bowl (see note 2) and toss them in the sauce until coated.
