Add 1 pound of fresh chicken wings into a medium mixing bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of oil, 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper to the wings.

Toss everything until the wings are evenly coated.

Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Once the air fryer is hot, add the wings in a single even layer.

If the amount of wings is too much for your air fryer, cook them in two batches.

Cook the chicken wings at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 14 minutes, flipping them halfway through.

After 14 minutes, remove the chicken wings from the air fryer and place them into another clean bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of melted butter on top of the wings.

Sprinkle 1/3 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of garlic powder over the wings.

Toss the wings until they are evenly coated.

Place the chicken wings back into the air fryer and cook them for another 4 to 6 minutes or until fully cooked and the Parmesan cheese has browned slightly.

Remove the chicken wings and serve them with cut-up carrot and celery sticks and your favorite sauce for dipping.
