These Easy Honey Mustard Chicken Wings are a quick and delicious snack or appetizer made effortlessly in the air fryer. Frozen chicken wing sections become perfectly crispy and juicy with a simple homemade honey mustard sauce that balances tangy mustard, sweet honey, and creamy mayonnaise for an irresistible flavor combination.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Wings

  • 10 frozen chicken wing sections
  • Oil spray, for spritzing

Honey Mustard Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar
  • Pinch of cracked pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the air fryer: Spritz the air fryer basket with oil spray to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  2. Arrange the wings: Place the frozen chicken wing sections in a single, even layer inside the air fryer basket for optimal crispiness.
  3. Spritz wings with oil: Lightly spray the wings with oil spray to help them crisp up during cooking.
  4. Cook the wings: Air fry the wings at 400°F (204°C) for 30 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they are evenly cooked and crispy on all sides.
  5. Make the honey mustard sauce: While the wings are cooking, whisk together mayonnaise, yellow mustard, honey, white vinegar, and cracked pepper in a small bowl until smooth and well combined.
  6. Toss wings in sauce: Once cooked, immediately toss the hot wings in the prepared honey mustard sauce so they are evenly coated and flavorful right before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
  • You can adjust the amount of honey or mustard in the sauce to suit your taste preferences.
  • Using frozen wings directly saves time, but thawed wings may cook slightly faster and more evenly.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the honey mustard sauce.
  • Make sure to flip wings halfway during air frying to achieve a uniform crispy texture.
