FAQ

Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
How do I reheat the wings?
Reheat the wings in a preheated oven or air fryer at 375°F for 10-15 minutes or until heated through and crispy.
Can I prepare the wings in advance?
Yes, you can season the wings and refrigerate them overnight. This helps to dry out the skin for extra crispiness. I do not recommend cooking chicken wings in advance.
