Thai Chicken Wings

Chicken wings just might be my favorite dish to make in my air fryer. Playing around with different seasonings, sauces, and flavor combinations have been endless! The air fryer always makes the wings come out fantastic, and this recipe I have here might just be one of my most indulgent ones yet. If you are a fan of Asian inspired flavors, you will absolutely love these wings. The fresh ginger and garlic give the wings an incredible boost of flavor and paired with the sweet Thai chili sauce makes them completely irresistible and finger-licking delicious!!
