If you have a passion for hot sauce, prepare to be blown away by these spicy, crispy chicken wings. Thanks to the convenience of an Air Fryer, whipping up this recipe takes only half an hour and you are all set, no deep frying required! That's what makes this recipe so fantastic and easy to make.

For this recipe, we are going to add a little spice to our chicken wings with the beloved Sriracha sauce, known for its delightful blend of spiciness, tanginess, and sweetness with a hint of garlic that pairs wonderfully with various Asian and other dishes.

In this Sriracha Chicken Sauce recipe, I've combined it with tomato sauce to amplify the heat, while the sweetness and thickness of the tomato sauce create a harmonious flavor profile.

Now, let's talk about achieving the ultimate crispiness with your chicken wings using an Air Fryer. Start by patting the wings dry with paper towels, then marinate them with your desired seasonings and crispy flour. Set the Air Fryer to around 180°C, arrange the wings in a single layer, spray some oil over them, and cook for approximately 10 minutes before flipping. Next, increase the heat to 250°C and continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes. Finish off with a final 5 minutes to ensure perfection.

To serve these Sriracha chicken wings, accompany them with a side of fresh cut vegetables, just like you would with buffalo wings. And of course, don't forget to grab a cold beer, as it's the ideal beverage to complement and enhance the flavors. Get ready to ignite your taste buds and enjoy the fiery goodness of these spicy wings at the comfort of your home with this easy-to-follow recipe. Let’s get cooking!
