Istruzioni

Thoroughly pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. Transfer to a big bowl. Add the salt and baking powder. Mix evenly with your hands. (*Footnote 1)

Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the chicken wings in the air fryer tray without overlapping. Air fry for 10 minutes, flipping the wings once in the middle, then flipping them back at the 10-minute mark. Keep air frying for another 5 to 10 minutes (*Footnote 2), or until the skin is golden and crispy. Test the doneness of the wings by inserting a paring knife into the thickest part of the wings, and the juice should run clear. Transfer the chicken to a big plate to cool slightly before mixing the sauce.

Mix the Thai sweet chili sauce, Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, rice vinegar, Shaoxing wine, and lime juice together in a small bowl.

(Option 1) Heat peanut oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until hot. Add the ginger and green onion. Stir a few times to release the fragrance. Pour in the mixed sauce. Stir and cook until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes.

Add back the air frier wings and stir immediately to coat well. Then transfer everything to a serving platter. Serve immediately with lime wedges.

(Option 2) You can also cook the sauce according to step 4, then transfer the sauce to a small bowl. Mix the sauce with the wings right before serving, or serve the sauce on the side as a dipping sauce. This option yields crispier wings if you’re not serving them immediately.
