Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings*
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup vinegar-based hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted melted butter

Preparation

If using a Basket Air Fryer:

  1. Arrange the chicken wings in the basket and sprinkle with the salt. Place the basket in the Air Fryer. Select the Wings preset, and press Start/Stop. When alerted, toss the wings. Replace basket to finish cooking.
  2. While the wings are cooking, put the hot sauce and melted butter into a large bowl, and stir to combine.
  3. Once the wings have finished cooking, transfer to a large bowl and toss in the sauce. Serve immediately.

If using a Toaster Oven Air Fryer: 

  1. Place the AirFryer Basket onto the Baking Pan and generously coat with nonstick cooking spray. Reserve. 
  2. Put the chicken wings into the basket in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt. Place the prepared basket into the oven in the upper position. Select AirFry at 400°F for 25 minutes. 
  3. While the wings are cooking, prepare the sauce. Put the hot sauce and melted butter into a large bowl, and stir to combine. 
  4. Once the wings have finished cooking, transfer to a large bowl and toss in the sauce. Serve immediately.
