Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Pat wings completely dry. Toss with baking powder, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate uncovered for at least 30 minutes for extra crispiness.
- 2
Arrange wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 380°F for 12 minutes.
- 3
Flip wings and air fry for another 10 minutes until skin is deeply golden and crispy.
- 4
Whisk together gochujang, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and rice vinegar in a large bowl.
- 5
Toss hot wings in the gochujang glaze. Plate and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
Tip: Baking powder on the wings draws moisture from the skin and raises its pH, which promotes faster browning and an incredibly crispy result. Make sure to use baking powder, not baking soda.
