Ingredients

Measurements:

15 chicken wing drumettes and flats (party wings)
1¼ tsp kosher salt
1 tsp cornstarch
½ tsp baking powder

For the ranch sauce

⅓ cup (2 oz) mayonnaise
⅓ cup (2¾ oz) sour cream
2 tbsp milk
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
¼ tsp dried dill
¼ tsp dried parsley
¼ tsp dried chives
¼ tsp onion powder
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ kosher salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

1Line the roasting pan with foil and set aside. Insert the oven rack into position 3 Down. Set the oven to Wings, Darkness 2, select 15 Pieces and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
2Place the wings on paper towels and pat dry to remove any excess moisture.
3Combine the salt, cornstarch and baking powder in a small bowl. Place the wings in a large bowl, sprinkle with the dry mix and toss to evenly coat. Place the wings in a single layer, evenly spaced apart, in the air fry basket.
4Once preheated, place the roasting pan on the rack to catch any drips during cooking. Place the basket into position 1 and air fry for 28 minutes. When the oven signals, turn the wings. Add an extra minute to the cooking time and continue cooking. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
5To make the ranch sauce, place all the sauce ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
6The wings should be golden brown and cooked through. If not, press A Bit More.
Tip: It may need a little more or a little less extra cooking time, best to keep an eye on it.
7Serve the crispy wings with the creamy ranch sauce on the side.
