Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 3 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 pounds chicken wings, split and tips discarded
- ⅓ cup water
- ⅓ cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons chili sauce (such as Heinz®)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon water
- ¼ teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 green onion, thinly sliced
- ¼ teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Make the chicken: Preheat an air fryer to 380 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat the fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Whisk baking powder, salt, pepper, and paprika together in a small bowl. Transfer to a resealable bag. Add some wings to the bag, seal, and shake until coated. Remove wings to a plate, shaking off any excess powder. Repeat until all wings are coated.
- Lightly spray wings with cooking spray. Place into the prepared air fryer basket and cook for 20 minutes, shaking and flipping wings halfway through. Increase the temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and continue to cook until wings are crispy, about 5 minutes more. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to cook in batches.
- While the wings are cooking, make the glaze: Combine 1/3 cup water, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, chili sauce, and garlic in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and cook until sauce has reduced, about 15 minutes. Whisk together 1 teaspoon water and cornstarch in a small bowl; pour into the saucepan and stir until sauce has thickened.
- Place crispy wings into a large bowl, drizzle with sauce, and toss until well coated. Garnish with sliced green onion and sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
- If you’re frying the wings in batches, spray the wings just before you place them in the fryer basket.

Love this recipe ????
I added two table spoons of tabasco sauce to knock it up a notch.
No changes made. Might leave in for 10 minutes to further crisp. Glaze was tasty.
