Ingredients

cooking spray

680 g chicken wings (tips discarded)

30 g baking powder

5 g salt

5 g ground black pepper

5 g paprika

120 ml white vinegar

60 ml pineapple juice

60 ml ketchup

15 ml brown sugar

15 ml reduced-sodium soy sauce

5 ml Sriracha sauce

5 ml sesame oil

15 g cornstarch

15 ml water

1 stalk green onion, sliced

4 g sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray.

Step 2

Prepare the wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, whisk together the baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Transfer the mixture to a large resealable plastic bag. Add some of the chicken wings to the bag, seal it, and shake until the wings are evenly coated. Repeat with the remaining wings until all are coated.

Step 3

Place the coated wings in the prepared air fryer basket and cook in the preheated air fryer for 22 to 23 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 4

While the wings cook, make the pineapple glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the white vinegar, pineapple juice, ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, Sriracha sauce, and sesame oil. Stir well and bring to a boil. Boil for about 2 minutes, then reduce the heat to a simmer. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until well combined, then add it to the saucepan and whisk quickly until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. If the sauce is too thick, thin it out with a little water.

Step 5

Increase the air fryer temperature to 200°C (400°F) and continue to cook the wings until they are crispy and browned, about 2 more minutes.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked wings to a large bowl, pour the pineapple glaze over them, and toss to coat them evenly. Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds. Serve hot.
