Crispy chicken wings come out juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside, with a tangy and salty vinegar sauce.
Ingredients :
1 pound chicken wings flats & drumettes
3 tablespoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar divided
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon granulated sugar
½ teaspoon kosher salt divided
½ teaspoon black pepper divided
2 tablespoons cold butter Cut into ½" cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions :
In a small skillet, combine white vinegar, 1 tablespoon cider vinegar, garlic powder, sugar, and ¼ teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat for 2 minutes or until reduced by half. Turn off the heat and add the butter a little bit at a time, whisking until incorporated. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
Pat the wings dry with a paper towel. Toss them with the olive oil, and ¼ teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
Place the wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 18-20 minutes until wings are crispy and cooked through.
Remove the wings from the air fryer and toss them with vinegar sauce and remaining 1 tablespoon of cider vinegar. Season with additional salt to taste if desired.
Serve immediately. Leftover sauce can be used as a dipping sauce.
