Chicken wings and game day go together like peas and carrots, fish and chips, and biscuits and gravy… you get the drift. We love chicken wings for football Sunday because they’re great if you’re serving a crowd, but a small batch can be made if you’re only cooking for two. They can be a meal, an appetizer, or a snack. Whether you like your wings spicy or mild, baked, deep-fried, or air-fried, these 13 chicken wing recipes are great to kick off football Sunday.

Air Fryer Chicken Wings
