Notes

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Wings

  1. Pat the wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper until well coated.

Step 2: Air Fry the Wings

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes.
  2. Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  3. Air fry at 400°F for 22-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 3: Make the Honey Mustard Sauce

  1. In a bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and salt.
  2. Adjust the seasoning to taste—add more honey for sweetness or more mustard for tanginess.

Step 4: Coat the Wings

  1. Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
  2. Pour the honey mustard sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!

  • Garnish with chopped parsley or sesame seeds for extra flavor.
  • Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing and celery or carrot sticks.

Tips for the Best Honey Mustard Wings

Pat the wings dry before seasoning for maximum crispiness.
Flip the wings halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Toss the wings in the sauce while hot for better absorption.
Want extra crispy wings? Cook for 2-3 minutes longer at 400°F.
