Ingredients

2 pounds chicken wings
1 cup Thai sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Sriracha (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar (optional for extra sweetness)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped green onions or sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

Prep the Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Marinate: In a bowl, combine the Thai sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, and Sriracha. Add the wings and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best results).
Air Fry: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they’re not overcrowded. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
Glaze: Once the wings are cooked, toss them in the remaining Thai chili wings sauce until well coated.
Serve: Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds, and enjoy your sweet chili wings air fryer style!
