Amazing Air Fried Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings

This is my first air fried recipe with chicken wings. I often think frying food at home is not so practical since a lot of oil is needed. Air frying is a great alternative to fry at home and still make the wings so crispy and tender inside. If you don't have Sichuan pepper powder, please go ahead use ground black pepper only. Enjoy!
