These bang bang wings are air fried, making them that much more awesome! They’re tossed in a perfectly balanced sauce with a sweet heat that lingers in a way that makes you want more. You could also grill, fry or roast them before tossing them in the sauce.

  1. Toss wings with olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer’s directions.

  2. Add wings to the air fryer basket, and cook until golden brown and crispy, tossing every 8 to 10 minutes, 23 to 25 minutes total. You may have to work in batches.

  3. Meanwhile, combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt with mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and Sriracha in a large bowl. Stir well to combine and set aside.

  4. Toss hot wings with sauce mixture until well coated.  Sprinkle with green onions and serve.
