Make perfect crispy chicken wings in the air fryer with gochujang sauce and toasted sesame mayo for a flavorful, mess-free delight.
Ingredients:
  • For the wings:
  • 3 pounds chicken wing drumettes and flats
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • For the sauce:
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted and kept warm
  • For the sesame mayonnaise dipping sauce:
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon sriracha
  • To garnish:
  • Thinly sliced scallions, for garnish
  • Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Thin spears of cucumber
  • Thin slices of radish
Instructions:
  • Prepare the wings: Pat dry if necessary. In a large bowl, toss wings with baking powder and salt until coated. Spread the wings in a single layer and let them rest in the refrigerator, uncovered, for 6 to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.
  • Air fry the wings: Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not crowded. Cook for 25 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  • Prepare the sauce while the wings are cooking. Combine gochujang, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and sugar in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Prepare a flavorful sesame mayonnaise by whisking together mayonnaise, sesame oil, sugar, and sriracha in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside for later use.
  • After 25 minutes of cooking, boost the air fryer temperature to 400°F and continue cooking the wings for 5 more minutes until they are golden brown and extra crispy.
  • Combine the melted butter with the sauce until well blended (if it thickens, the warmth of the wings will liquify it). Transfer wings to a large bowl, pour half the sauce, and coat the wings evenly.
  • Presentation is key: Plate the dish and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve promptly with cucumbers, radishes, and sesame mayonnaise for dipping. Enjoy!
  • Lower the air fryer temperature to 380°F and repeat the process with the remaining wings. Finish by tossing them with the remaining sauce.
