Preparation Instructions:

1 - In a medium bowl Season the Chicken with the Garlic Powder and Spices you Prefer

2 - Transfer the Chicken to a sealable plastic bag and add the Flour. Shake to thoroughly coat the Chicken

3 - Spray the Air Fryer Basket with the Olive Oil

4 - Using Tongs transfer the Chicken from the bag to the Air fryer. Spray them with olive oil. Cook for 5 minutes...then

5 - Open the Air Fryer and flip your Chicken Wings. Continue to cook and flip every 5-10 minutes until 30 minutes have passed and the Chicken is fully cooked. Depending on what temperature you set, your fryer may cook the wings quicker, I set mine to 360 and cooked the wings for the full 30 minutes as I like mine crispy.

6 - Remove the cooked Chicken from the Air Fryer and Set aside

7 - Rinse the basket and base with warm water to prep the Air Fryer for the Waffles.

8 - Place your Frozen Waffles in the Air Fryer. Do not stack them. Give them a spray of the Olive Oil and Cook for 6 minutes

9 - If necessary remove the Cooked Waffles from the Air Fryer when done and repeat step 8 for the remaining Waffles, my Air Fryer has a large capacity 5.5qt Basket and it cooked all the Waffles in one shot.

10 - Serve the Waffles with the Chicken and a touch of Maple Syrup, light Whipped Cream or even some Hot Sauce...Sweet and Spicy...Yum!
