Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Use a paper towel to dry the wings thoroughly, then place the wings in a large bowl or a gallon size ziplock bag.
- In a small bowl mix together the garlic salt, onion powder, paprika, baking powder, black pepper and salt. Pour the dry rub seasoning over the wings, if using a zip lock bag seal the bag and shake to coat the wings. If the wings are in a large bowl toss until coated.
- Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. Arrange wings in an even layer in the basket.
- Cook for 16 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking time. The wings are done once they reach an internal temperature of 175°F on an instant read meat thermometer. Optional: Spray the wings with avocado spray before cooking to help them brown and become extra crispy!
- When the wings have 4 minutes left of cook time, make the sauce. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter (about 30 seconds). Stir in the parmesan cheese, parsley, and minced garlic. Microwave on high for 1 minute more, stirring halfway through, until sauce is well combined.
- As soon as the wings are done cooking, transfer the wings to a large bowl. Pour the sauce on top and toss the wings to coat. Serve immediately!

Notes
Store: While they will never be as crispy as they were when freshly cooked and coated in the sauce, the leftovers are still tasty! Place leftovers in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheat: For the best texture, reheat them in the air fryer at 400°F for about 3 minutes, until heated through.
