Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings

  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and season them with salt and pepper.
  2. Make the Glaze: In a bowl, combine maple syrup, bourbon, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
  3. Air Fry the Wings: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Coat with Glaze: In the last few minutes of cooking, brush the maple bourbon glaze over the wings, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
  5. Serve: Remove the wings from the air fryer and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot as a tasty appetizer or game day snack.
