Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a large bowl, toss the wings with the olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Add the garlic powder and grated Parmesan to the wings and toss until evenly coated.
Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket with minimal overlap; cook in batches if needed.
Set the air fryer to 375°F and cook the wings for 22–26 minutes, shaking or turning them 2–3 times during cooking, until internal temperature reaches 165°F and wings are crispy.
Serve the wings hot, garnished with extra Parmesan and minced parsley if desired, with sliced carrots, celery, and ranch on the side.
