Prep

Step 1. Pat the Chicken Wings very dry with paper towels. Toss in a large bowl with the Olive Oil, Salt, and Garlic Powder.
Step 2. Heat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange half the wings in a single layer and air-fry, turning halfway, until browned and cooked through with no pink at the bone, about 24 minutes.
Step 3. Meanwhile, arrange the Celery on a serving plate. Zest the Lemon into a clean large bowl, then cut the lemon into wedges and set aside.

Cook

Step 4. Transfer the first batch to a plate. Air-fry the remaining wings in a single layer, turning halfway, until browned and cooked through with no pink at the bone, about 24 minutes.

Finish & serve

Step 5. Add the Black Pepper to the lemon zest. Toss all the cooked wings in the bowl, then squeeze a lemon wedge over them; serve the remaining wedges alongside.
Step 6. Serve the wings with the celery, Ranch Dressing, and Bread.

Tips

Good to know

Check the thickest wings with an instant-read thermometer; chicken is safe at 165°F.

Swap it

Use dairy-free ranch and dairy-free bread if needed.

Leftovers

Refrigerate wings within two hours and reheat in the air fryer until hot throughout.
