The SECRET to Making Crispy, Golden Air-Fryer Wings

secret airfryer coating it was not so secret because I'm about to tell you all but it was a secret messy sticky like totally addictively yum that's what wings are all about and we're doing an airfryer version today yes these are my airfryer Vietnamese style wings [Music] so one of the problems I think with airfryer chicken is that sometimes you don't get that really lovely deep golden color well I have a little mix that I put onto my air fried chicken that gives it that really deep golden color we'll get to that bit later on first of all I need to do some marinating so I have my chicken wings I'm doing drums and flats because they're my favorite so chicken into a large bowl and then I'm going to use my Vietnamese lemongrass and garlic marinade because I made this stuff and I really like it I do have a recipe for you guys on my website though for those of you who can't get a hold of it so you can make up this sauce at home but if you can get a hold of it makes it much easier okay now just a little drizzle here give that a mix and you could use this technique that I have coming up with the the coating my special coating mix with any other kind of you know wing marinade that you have at home too so it's really versatile now I'm going to give These Wings like 15 minutes in the fridge just to chill out in there soak up all of that flavor okay so now for this like secret airfryer coating this is not so secret because I'm about to tell you all but it was a secret corn flour also known as corn starch to my friends in America and now the special ingredient is baking powder so baking powder will encourage the Browning to happen quicker and more evenly all over that chicken so that's the secret and then just to encourage even more of that deep Browning color I've also got a little dash of sugar here too now some salt for the flavor and we wait for the chicken so here we are with our chicken I'm gonna grab my airfryer basket I've got a little bit of oil spray in there but I'm just going to spray a little bit more I know that the deal with air fries is that you know you try not to use as much oil as you would for like deep frying but I do think a little spray of oil on the base and then on the chicken itself does really help with the texture and the color so with the chicken itself I'm going to just Pop That Into My Little Mix here now Pat off the excess flour and then just pop that into your airfryer basket depending on how big your airfryer basket is will depend on how many pieces of chicken you can fit in here but the key is don't overcrowd it because then you'll get soggy chicken again just a little spray here and then into your airfryer I like to do like around about 15 to 20 minutes in total but come back after 10 minutes to flip them over so you get a nice even color okay let's have a look in here whoa look at that color I did flip them over halfway through and I mean they're all beautifully deliciously deeply golden how many ways can I describe Golden Chicken they're very golden I love that color it's very nice okay so now we're going to do the Saucy part so I'm going to get all of my chicken pieces to my Wok I mean you can just like hear the crunch right okay so I'm going to turn the heat on and again I'm going to go in with my Vietnamese lemongrass and garlic sauce and then toss this around and it's like that crispy kind of crunchy coating just love sauce sucks it up all that flavor just sticks to the outside of the chicken wings some Greenery here some coriander maybe a chili too it smells really good and now let's serve it up so there you go friends um really cool way to do airfryer chicken with that little extra step that gives you the extra Crunch and the extra Browning golden deliciousness if you guys enjoyed this video why not subscribe to my channel and then you can like eat more wings and find out more delicious techniques for things but in the meantime how about I get in here and try one of these yum I need one with a chili on it because I love the chili something hmm so good so spicy that chili is actually really spicy I love how much of that lemongrass flavor I can really taste in this chicken though yum hmm that really was messy wasn't it [Music] hey thanks for watching my video I hope you liked it I sure do love cooking and creating content for my channel and if you enjoyed it then why not hit the Subscribe button and maybe that little bell as well because if you hit the Bell then you'll get a notification every time I'm cooking something delicious
