These Crispy Air Fried Honey Garlic Jerk Wings are cooked until golden and covered in a delicious, sticky honey garlic sauce. They make a perfect appetizer or game day snack!
In a large bowl, pat dry chicken wings with a paper towel, then season with salt, black pepper, jerk seasoning, and baking powder. Toss until the wings are well-coated.
2
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
3
Spray the air fryer rack with cooking spray and arrange chicken wings evenly on it, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow for even cooking.
4
Cook wings for 15-17 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and cooked through.
5
While the wings are cooking, add butter and minced garlic to a pot over medium heat. Cook until butter melts and garlic is fragrant.
6
Stir in honey, tamari, hot sauce, ground ginger, smoked paprika, and lemon zest. Simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes, then remove from heat.
7
Once the wings are fully cooked and crispy, toss them in the sauce until thoroughly coated or brush the sauce onto the wings. If desired, return the wings to the air fryer for an additional 8 minutes to lock in the flavors, then serve.
