Air-Fried Sweet and Sour Chicken Wings
Description
Sweet, sour, crispy, and sticky chicken wings made in the air fryer to avoid the mess of deep-frying.
Ingredients
•
2 pounds party chicken wings
•
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
3/4 cup white sugar
•
2/3 cup distilled white vinegar
•
1/3 cup water
•
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
•
2 tablespoons cornstarch
•
1 tablespoon ketchup
Directions
1
Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2
Place wings in a large bowl. Drizzle oil over the top, sprinkle with salt, and stir until evenly combined. Place 1/2 of the wings in the air fryer basket, skin side down.
3
Air fry wings for 10 minutes. Flip wings over using tongs and cook for 10 minutes more. Increase temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Flip wings over and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes more. Repeat with remaining wings.
4
Meanwhile, combine sugar, vinegar, water, soy sauce, cornstarch, and ketchup in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk until sauce has thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn heat off and let cool slightly.

Place wings in a large bowl. Pour sauce over the top, toss to coat, and serve immediately.
