Directions

1. This recipe is really easy. If you are using frozen chicken wings, you can thaw them first before using. If you are in a rush, you can directly air fry them to thaw them and then crisp them up.
2. For frozen chicken wings, check out the method in the link.
3. Dry the wings well. Normally, I separate them in wingettes and drumettes. This time I left them whole and was quite satisfied with the results at the end.
4. Rub salt and pepper on the wings and they are ready to air fry. If you are adding cornstarch, add it here and toss the wings in it. Also brush with olive oil before placing in the air fryer basket.
5. Preheat air fryer at 200C or 390F for about 5 minutes. Lay the wings in one layer in the air fryer. I can fit 1 lb. or 450 gm. at one go in my XL air fryer. Air fry at 200C or 390F for 16-20 minutes depending upon how meaty your wings are.
6. I needed to air fry for 16 minutes (which included 2 minutes at the end after brushing with teriyaki sauce). If you have not preheated your air fryer, you will likely need more time than 16 minutes. This time will also vary depending upon your air fryer model.
7. Flip them midway for even browning. You will see that the fat starts rendering and the skin begins to crisp up.
8. Meanwhile take teriyaki sauce in a bowl. Mine was of a glaze consistency. Once the wings are done, take them out in a bowl and pour the teriyaki sauce to coat them evenly. Then place them back in the air fryer for a couple of minutes at 200C or 390F. That makes the teriyaki glaze coat the wings well.
9. Serve hot after sprinkling roasted sesame seeds on top. Your amazing air fryer teriyaki wings are ready to eat. Enjoy them hot.
