Don’t they look delicious? Golden brown, baked Honey Garlic Chicken wings are just too good to pass up. Add them to your game day buffet or take them tail gating or camping.

The Honey Teriyaki sauce is made with:

• honey,
• Teriyaki sauce
• orange juice
• fresh ginger and garlic
• corn starch
• red pepper flakes (optional of course)

The wings have crispy edges because they’re made with an air fryer which uses convection heat in a small space. This is what makes potatoes made in the air fryer so crispy!

I love using my air fryer. I warm up my kids’ waffles (4 or more at a time) in it in the morning so, I don’t just use it for potatoes and wings. Hence, I use it like a toaster oven too.
