Notes
- Wings: Use pre-cut wings or cut whole chicken wings at the joint (See Expert Tips for instructions).
- The number of servings: For appetizer portions - 4 to 6 people. For a main dish - 2 to 4 people.
- BBQ sauce: Homemade or your favorite brand. When tossing the wings in sauce, ensure they are well coated but not excessively drenched. You want the sauce to cling to the wings, not overpower them.
- Storage and reheating: Refrigerate for 3-4 days. Freeze leftovers for up to 3 months. Defrost them in the fridge. Reheat in the oven at 375°F/190°C for 7-9 minutes or in the air fryer at 360°F/ 180°C for 3-4 minutes.
