Keto Air Fryer Fiery Sriracha Buffalo Wings
How to Make It
Step
Recipe Steps steps 5
Step 1
Place the chicken wings in a medium-sized bowl. If they are not already cut into sections, do so using a sharp knife. Cut in between each joint of the wing, separating it into three parts (the drumette, the flat/wingette, and the wing tip). Melt the butter. Add ⅓ of the melted butter, garlic and onion powders, and kosher salt to the chicken. Toss the mixture well.
Step 2
Place the chicken wings onto the racks of an air fryer, leaving some space between each one. If you have an air fryer with multiple racks, place all the wings into the air fryer. You will need to rotate the racks and possibly add extra time to racks that are not fully browned and cooked through. If you don’t have an air fryer with multiple racks, you will likely need to cook the chicken wings in two batches. Set the temperature to 300°F (150°C) for 15 minutes. Cooking the wings at a lower temperature will make them tender.
Step 3
After the time has passed, increase the heat to 400°F (200°C) for 13-15 minutes to allow the wings to get golden and crispy. If using multiple racks at a time, you may need to rotate the racks halfway through, placing the more browned/crispy rack in a cooler part of the air fryer to allow the other rack to brown (adding more time if necessary).
Step 4
While the wings are cooking, make the fiery sriracha buffalo sauce. Melt the remaining butter in a heatproof container that is large enough to toss the cooked wings into. Add in the sriracha and hot sauce. Stir to combine and emulsify the mixture.
Step 5
Add in the hot, crispy wings and toss well to coat. Enjoy the wings piping hot! Reheat any leftover chicken wings in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 5-6 minutes until hot, tossing them in any remaining sauce.
