Trying to shed unwanted pounds but can’t seem to shake your love of wings? This keto chicken wings approved recipe is perfect for you!
While chicken wings (and their various sauces) are approved on a number of diets, trying to get the restaurant texture you love is nearly impossible in an oven or crockpot. Luckily, air frying provides that crispy-on-the-outside texture of a deep fryer without absorbing all that unhealthy oil. Free of crusts and batter, low in carbohydrates, and high in fat, this recipe is perfect for keto dieters who want to add great-tasting wings back into their diets.

Keto Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings

- 2 lbs chicken wings thawed
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 stick butter
- 3 cloves finely chopped garlic
-
Preheat the air fryer to 380° F | 180° C for 5 minutes. Spritz air-frying pan with oil.
-
Melt butter in a saucepan, when the butter is melted, add in parmesan cheese, and garlic. Mix thoroughly, but do not overheat.
-
Remove the pre-heated air frying pan from the air fryer, and add a liner to the pan. Brush each wing with the garlic parmesan butter, and place them on the liner.
-
Air fry the wings for 20 minutes at 380° F | 180° C shaking the basket every 5 minutes. Brush on additional garlic parmesan butter, and air fry for 5 minutes at 400° F | 204° C. The temp change will add additional crispiness without burning.
-
Using a meat thermometer, find the largest wing, and check the temperature. Make sure that the chicken is heated to at least 160° F | 71° C. Add additional time as necessary to achieve 160° F | 71° C.

Plate and enjoy!
