Ingredients
- 2 pounds bone-in chicken wings
- 1½ cups pickle juice from a jar of dill pickles
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- chopped fresh dill optional, for garnish
- dill pickle slices optional, for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken wings by separating the wingette from the drumette on a cutting board with a sharp knife, if desired.
- In a large Ziplock bag or a sealable container, combine the chicken wing pieces and pickle juice. Remove as much air as possible and seal the bag. If you are marinating in a container, place a piece of plastic wrap over it and press it onto the wings, removing as much air as possible, before sealing it.
- Marinate in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. Do not let it marinate for longer than 4 hours.
- When ready to cook your chicken wings, lay out a large piece of parchment paper and cover it with paper towels.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat try with paper towels. Place the dried chicken on the parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk the apple cider vinegar, honey, dark brown sugar, dill, and garlic salt together until combined.
- Dip the chicken wings, individually, into the sauce and coat well. Allow excess sauce to drip off and then place the wings in an even layer in your air fryer. You do not want your chicken to overlap so if necessary cook in batches.
- Cook the wings in your air fryer at 375°F for 10 minutes. Flip the wings over and cook for an additional 8-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature is 165°F.
- Plate and serve warm with fresh dill and pickles, optional.
Notes
- Storage: Store pickle brined chicken wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Baking Instructions: Preheat your oven to 425ºF. Follow the recipe through step 7, placing the wings on a lined baking sheet instead of in your air fryer. Bake for 15 minutes, then flip and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
