Instructions

1. Prepare the Wings:
   • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
   • In a large mixing bowl, toss the wings with baking powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Ensure they are evenly coated for maximum crispiness.
2. Preheat the Air Fryer:
   • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
   • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3. Cook the Wings:
   • Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap (work in batches if needed).
   • Air-fry the wings at 400°F for 20–25 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking. They should be golden brown and crispy when done.
4. Make the Sauce:
   • While the wings cook, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine BBQ sauce, honey, sriracha, melted butter, garlic powder, and apple cider vinegar (if using).
   • Stir until smooth and heated through, about 3–4 minutes. Adjust the sweetness or heat to your preference.
5. Toss the Wings:
   • Transfer the cooked wings to a large mixing bowl.
   • Pour the warm Sriracha Honey BBQ sauce over the wings and toss gently to coat evenly.
6. Serve:
   • Arrange the saucy wings on a platter and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
   • Serve immediately with ranch or blue cheese dressing—and plenty of napkins for a finger-lickin’ feast!

Tips for Success

• For extra crispy wings, pat them dry thoroughly before tossing in the baking powder and spices.
• If you like your wings extra saucy, double the sauce recipe for dipping or drizzling.
