How To Make Air Fryer Honey Garlic Wings

Step One: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, black pepper, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.

Step Two: Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly in the marinade. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.

Step Three: Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes.

Step Four: Place the marinated chicken wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Ensure they’re not overcrowded for even cooking.

Step Five: Set cook time for 25-30 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure they cook evenly. Check for doneness; the wings should be crispy and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). If you’d like extra glaze, remove the wings when they’re cooked and toss them in any leftover marinade or additional honey garlic sauce.
