Fridays are what my family looks forward to the most because it means its the end of the work week and the weekend is ahead! Another reason is because my son has dubbed it 'Pig Out Fridays' because we come up with a dinner menu of some of our restaurant favorites or junk food lol.
One of our favorite 'Pig Out Friday' meals are chicken wings made in an air fryer. They come out so crispy and flavorful... in a short amount of time and without a deep fryer! My 10 year old son loves helping out in the kitchen and this is a recipe he can easily do himself too.
