We Love Chicken Wings

Best Air Fryer Wings Cooking Tips
- Remember to marinade the chicken wings for at least 20 mins to 1 hour. Let the flavours develop and soak thoroughly. Use a mixture of dark soy, light soy sauce, shaoxing wine, sugar, white pepper, and minced garlic for that pop of umami and depth of flavour.
- Crispy chicken wings are deep-fried twice: first at a low temperature to cook through the meat, and the second at high heat to push out the excess oil and create the crunch!
- Potato Starch: Coating your chicken wings with potato starch makes all the difference when it comes to making the crispiest fried chicken wings! It is night and day compared to using plain old flour! Potato starch has a bit more grit and, when deep-fried, creates little balls of crunchiness. It is lighter yet crispier and crunchier!
- Hot and juicy chicken wings can be cooked in an air fryer or baked in the oven.

Well, I know what I need to do with my air fryer now! I've only had it for a few months and I'm still exploring the options, but this is quick, easy, and loaded with big flavours that I love. I also bought wayyyyy too much potato starch the other day... so, good timing. Haha.

I love chicken wings and the air fryer is our new favourite way to cook them. I usually use cornstarch but I will be trying with potato starch next time.

cornstarch is good too! i usually swap between that and potato starch - PS is just more gritty
