This post may contain affiliate links to products I use and highly recommend. You can read my full disclosure .

These Crispy Air Fryer Old Bay Chicken Wings include just a few spices, but offer so much fried chicken flavor. Use these as an alternative to my air fryer fried chicken recipe when you’re looking for a full-flavored option using fewer spices. Enjoy these Old Bay Wings with my cauliflower mac and cheese and pressure cooker cabbage for a perfect comfort food meal.

Why Make Old Bay Chicken Wings in an Air Fryer

  • Simple spices & ingredients: Old Bay is a staple in most households. This recipe uses it and a few others to get fried chicken flavors when you don’t have a lot of spices
  • Fried chicken crunch & flavor without deep-frying: this Air Fryer Old Bay Chicken Wings recipe turns out super crispy without breading, flour or deep-frying.

Ingredients Needed

  • Chicken Wings: I prefer chicken wings cut into parts (flat and drum). But, you can use whole chicken wings too!
  • Old Bay Seasoning: this offers so much flavor without requiring a lot of spices.
  • Garlic Powder
  • Dried Parsley
  • Baking Powder
  • Olive oil: I always use a little bit of oil when making wings in the air fryer. Besides, olive oil, you can use any of these oils for air frying.

How to Make Air Fryer Old Bay Chicken Wings

  1. Mix the old bay, garlic powder, dried parsley and baking powder in a small dish or ramekin. 
  2. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on the wings and toss to coat
  3. Place the wings in a flat layer in the air fryer cooking basket. Drizzle olive oil on the chicken wings.
  4. Use the Air Crisp setting on 400 degrees for 12-14 minutes per side

Top Cooking Tips & FAQs

  • Premix the spices: taking the time to mix the spices before adding them to the chicken wings helps the spices spread more evenly.
  • Coat the wings evenly: getting the wings evenly coated with the spice mix and using most of the spice mix helps them to get crispy
  • Preheat your air fryer if required: my air fryer doesn’t require preheating. But, if yours has a setting for preheating or requires it, then preheat your air fryer without food for up to five minutes before making these Old Bay Wings.
How long should I cook my chicken wings in the air fryer?

The cook time for air fryer chicken wings depends on whether the wings are thawed or frozen and your desired level of crispness. You can start to check for doneness at 20 minutes.

How long do you cook thawed chicken wings in air fryer?

This depends on how crisp you’d like your chicken wings. This recipe calls for you to cook thawed chicken wings for 24-28 minutes.

Can I put frozen wings in air fryer?

Yes you can make frozen chicken wings in an air fryer. However, I personally prefer them with sauce. They also don’t get very crisp (more like baked chicken).
