Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and black pepper to taste
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
In the Air Fryer
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
- Toss wings with olive oil, salt, and pepper. And place in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 15 minutes.
- While wings are cooking, mix honey & bbq sauce in a small bowl.
- After 15 minutes, remove the wings from the air fryer and toss them with the sauce.
- I recommend lining the air fryer basket with parchment paper when adding the sauced wings Place the wings back in the air fryer basket and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
- Let rest a few minutes before serving (the sauce will be very hot right after cooking).

Notes
- For Oven Baked Wings
- Toss the wings with 1 tablespoon flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder and seasonings. Refrigerate 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours) uncovered.
- Toss the wings with olive oil and place on rack that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Cook in a 425°F oven for 20 minutes, flip and bake an additional 15 minutes.
- Toss with sauce and broil for a few minutes to crisp.
- Optional additions to the bbq sauce: garlic, sriracha, fresh ginger, or hot pepper flakes
- If using an air fryer, cook in a single layer and do not overcrowd the air fryer.
- The sauce can be very sticky and difficult to clean from a baking pan or the air fryer basket. Line the baking pan or air fryer with parchment paper after adding the sauce to the wings.
- Do not let the air fryer preheat or run with parchment without adding the wings to the fryer. The parchment can blow around and burn (the wings will hold it in place).
- Cook in batches if needed. All batches can be reheated in the air fryer at 400°F for 2-3 minutes before serving.
