Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

I like using a wire rack insert for air fryer baskets when I have one handy. It improves airflow and makes the wings even crispier.
A digital meat thermometer is helpful if you want to double-check doneness. Wings should reach 165°F internally.
If your wings seem pale, give them another 2 minutes at 400°F. Crispiness is worth it.
For extra tang, add a splash more vinegar to the sauce.
