If you’re new to air frying, don’t worry. So am I! I’m just getting the hang of how to work my air fryer but I already love it so much! It makes cooking and cleaning really simple. If you don’t have an air fryer, it might be to hop on the bandwagon.
I’ve seen an influx of questions about air fryers and if they can be used on Whole30. Or if the Paleo air fryer recipes can even be a real thing. The answer to both of those good questions is YES! Whole30 air fryer recipes and Paleo air fryer recipes are both still Whole30 and Paleo. There’s no extra oil added, no off limits ingredients used. I mean, unless YOU add them! That makes this whole air fryer deal pretty cool if you ask me.
My boyfriends favorite thing to do with ours is to reheat his leftovers. I’m sure you can guess that’s not MY favorite thing to do, but to each his own! You’ll find that there’s a lot you can do with this baby. From sweet potato fries, crispy breakfast potatoes, chicken wings, every and all veggies, pork chops. It even makes asparagus taste not as bad. Just saying.
As for these BBQ wings, they don’t have to be BBQ wings. You could, and should, toss them with whatever sauce gets you excited. I had just made a fresh batch of my Whole30 BBQ sauce so of course that’s what was going on mine. Any dressing or sauce you’ve got would work! Some of my favorites that I don’t have to make myself are from Tessemae’s. I also really love crispy caesar dressing wings!

The only real important note about this recipe is to make sure you flip the wings. Honestly, if that’s the hardest part and the only thing I really need to say about how to prepare these, I think you’ll be fine! So if you’re scared of that air fryer, let this encourage you to just go for it with these Whole30 air fried BBQ wings!
