How to make Air fryer Hot Honey Wings
Wings
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps ensure crispy skin.
Make the Marinade:
In a large bowl, mix yellow mustard, olive oil, Tony’s Creole seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base. Stir until well combined.
Marinate the Wings:
Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them thoroughly, ensuring they are evenly coated with the marinade. Let them sit for 15-20 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for more flavor).
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
Cook the Wings:
Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring there is space between them for proper air circulation.
Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Add the Hot Honey Glaze:
Transfer the cooked wings to a bowl. Drizzle the hot honey over the wings and toss until they are evenly coated.
Serve:
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or sides. Enjoy!
Optional: Garnish with chopped parsley or a sprinkle of Creole seasoning for extra flavor and presentation.
Sauce
Melt the Butter:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it’s fully liquid but not browned.
Add the Flavors:
Stir in the hot sauce, honey, and Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base. Mix well until everything is combined and smooth.
Simmer:
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together.
Taste and Adjust:
Taste the sauce and adjust the sweetness, heat, or saltiness as needed by adding more honey, hot sauce, or a pinch of salt.
Serve:
Remove from heat and use immediately as a wing glaze, dipping sauce, or drizzle over your favorite dishes.
Tips & Tricks
For crispier wings cook wings for 5-10 minutes longer.
