Ingredients Needed For Air Fryer Chinese Chicken Wings
- Soy Sauce
- Brown Sugar
- Garlic Powder
- Chicken Wings (Fresh or Frozen)
How To Make Chinese Chicken Wings In The Air Fryer
You can either use fresh or frozen wings. If you purchase fresh wings most of the time, you buy them whole. Which means you need to cut them. There are actually three pieces to each chicken wing. Start by placing your chicken wing (whole) on a cutting board, then find the bone in the middle; it will make a clean cut. After you make your cuts, you make three in total. You can use the tips for chicken stock/broth or dispose of them if you want. You can either leave them whole or cut them into two pieces.
Add the brown sugar, soy sauce, and garlic powder into your saucepan and bring to a simmer. Then remove from heat.
Add your chicken wings to a large bowl.
Add your wings to the Air Fryer, be careful not to overcrowd, or they will take longer to be done.
These are them, looking tasty.
How should the wings be prepped before the air fryer?
You can either keep the wings whole or separate them into three pieces, as included in the directions.
You do not need to spay your basket with cooking spray since they will not stick. Follow the instructions for a great and easy batch of homemade Air Fryer Chinese Chicken Wings.
What temperature should the air fryer be set to?
I placed the chicken wings for this recipe, turned the cooking temperature to 360 degrees F, and used the air fryer setting.
Since all air fryers are slightly different, you may need a longer cooking temperature. But I find that 360 degrees F cooks the wings to perfection! The key is to flip your chicken wings a few times during the cooking process so that all of the sides get evenly cooked. This will depend on what air fryer you own!
How should the sauce be prepared and added to the wings?
I usually make the sauce and marinate the chicken wings for at least an hour, but you can do this for as little as 30 minutes, and the marinade works wonders if you marinate overnight.
Can I make this recipe in the oven?
Yes, any recipe that you can cook in the air fryer, you can cook in your oven, and vice versa. The temperature would be at 380 degrees F, and cook for 30 to 45 minutes, or until a meat thermometer is placed into the chicken wings and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
How should the air fryer Chinese chicken wings be served?
Air fryers have been a staple in kitchens because of their ability to deep-fry foods with little or no oil. One dish that is perfect for the air fryer is Chinese chicken wings. The combination of sweet and savory flavors, crispy skin, and tender meat makes this dish great as an appetizer or snack! However, when it comes to serving these wings, there are many ways to enjoy them. Which method should you choose?
Serve them with traditional garnishes such as sesame seeds, sliced green onions, or even fresh herbs!

We love these wings!
Question: can I marinade the chicken wings and then freeze them before cooking? I’m have a hip replacement and want to get as much food prep done and in the freezer!
Thanks
I let my wings soak for a day and a 1/2 before I cooked them. They were scrumptious! I used the leftover sauce to make beef and broccoli I marinated the steak in the sauce. Best beef and broccoli I’ve ever had!
