Why Air Fryer Alfredo Wings Work

Versatile Crowd-Pleaser: Perfect for game day, family dinners, or as a unique appetizer, these wings are guaranteed to be a hit with any crowd.
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ pound of separated chicken wings
- ½ stick of butter
- 4 ounces room temperature cream cheese
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper(this measurement can be adjusted to your preference)
- 1 ½ tablespoons of all purpose seasoning(I used lemon pepper seasoning)
- ½ shallot diced
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- Chopped chives for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Wings for Maximum Crispiness: Start by laying your wings on a bed of paper towels. Pat them completely dry to remove any excess moisture—this step is crucial for achieving that perfectly crispy skin.
Season Generously: Next, season your wings on both sides with your favorite all-purpose seasoning. Let them rest for 10-15 minutes on an elevated rack. This allows the seasoning to soak in while helping the wings air out for an even cook.
Cook the Wings in the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer (or oven) to 375°F (190°C). Place your wings in a single layer and cook them for 20 minutes. At the halfway point (around 10 minutes), flip the wings to ensure even cooking.
Prepare the Alfredo Sauce While the Wings Cook: While the wings are in the air fryer, heat a skillet over medium heat. Start by melting the butter. Once melted and hot, add diced shallots and let them cook down for about 2 minutes until softened. Then, toss in minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Make the Sauce Creamy and Flavorful: Once the garlic and shallots are fragrant, add the cream cheese. Stir continuously until it melts completely into the mixture. Gradually pour in the heavy cream and stir until combined. Season the sauce with black pepper and allow it to simmer until thickened. Keep the sauce warm until the wings are ready.
Finishing Touches
Check Your Wings and Finish Strong: After 20 minutes, check that your wings are fully cooked. They should have an internal temperature of 180-185°F (82-85°C). Transfer the wings to a large mixing bowl.
Coat the Wings in Alfredo Sauce: Drizzle the Alfredo sauce over the wings. Be careful not to add too much sauce—you want to maintain that crispy skin! Toss the wings gently to coat them evenly.
Plate and Garnish: Finally, plate your wings and garnish them with freshly chopped chives for a pop of color and flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
