Ingredients
  

  • 2.0 lbs chicken wings
  • 0.333 cup honey
  • 0.25 cup soy sauce
  • 3.0 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1.0 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1.0 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1.0 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1.0 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1.0 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1.0 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2.0 green onions chopped

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, black pepper, and red pepper flakes until well combined.
  • Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them until they are well coated in the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap or transfer to a ziplock bag, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 380°F for about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the wings from the marinade (reserve leftover marinade) and place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  • Air fry the wings for 27.5 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure they cook evenly.
  • While the wings are cooking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to let it simmer for about 6.0 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  • Once the wings are done cooking, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the thickened glaze over the wings and toss until they are well coated.
  • Transfer the wings to a serving platter. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top for garnish before serving.

Notes

Marinate overnight for maximum flavor.
