Sweet n’ Spicy is my favorite combo!
Isn’t it funny how a lot of us like two completely different flavors put together. I absolutely love sweet and salty things. I could eat peanut butter cups every single day. I feel the same way about sweet and spicy things. I’ve always loved that combo. If I go to a restaurant and see that they have a sweet and spicy wing sauce, then I know immediately what I am going to order. Ever since I got my Air Fryer, I have made lots of fantastic things in them, including lot of Air Fryer Chicken Wings. But I hadn’t made any sweet and spicy wings. Well, that changes today!
What Is An Air Fryer?
If you haven’t made chicken wings in the Air Fryer yet, you absolutely need to! If you don’t have an Air Fryer, please go out and buy one asap. What is an Air Fryer? An Air Fryer is a small electric kitchen appliance that uses hot air to cook food. You get the same result you would if you would use oil to fry them in the traditional way. But, with the Air Fryer, you are only using hot air and only hot air. So you get that same crispy “fried” taste without all the oils and fats. The Air Fryer is so easy to use as well, just preheat it, set the food in, and then pull it out when it is ready! There are also a ton of Air Fryer recipes out there to choose from and you can cook so many different things in them.
I love to use my Ninja Foodi, which can both be used as a pressure cooker and an Air Fryer:
I also have this Air Fryer From Black & Decker. It is a little smaller and less expensive but it works great and I use it all the time for smaller recipes!
Honey Sriracha Air Fryer Chicken Wings
When deciding how I wanted to make my sweet and spicy sauce that I could toss to coat my wings in, the decision was simple. I’ve always loved honey and frequently use it on my toast and my bagels. I’ve also always been a HUGE fan of Sriracha hot sauce. Once, I had made that easy decision, it was time to make my Honey Sriracha Air Fryer Chicken Wings. The ingredients are pretty simple.
