• ¼ cup water

• ½ teaspoon neutral oil

Instructions

• 1 Wash your chicken wings and pat dry. Next, marinate your chicken wings in ¼
  teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, 1 tablespoon shaoxing cooking wine or
  soju, and 1 tablespoon baking powder. Mix everything together.
• 2 Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Once pre-heated, add 5-6 wings at a
  time (add more wings if you have a larger air fryer). Air fry for 15 minutes at
  400 or until golden brown.
• 3 While the wings are cooking, make your korean spicy sauce. Mix all these
  ingredients together – gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, water, grated garlic,
  neutral oil, and honey until gochujang is dissolved.
• 4 Add sauce on pan and heat on medium low heat. Stir the sauce occasionally in the
  pan so it doesn’t stick. When the sauce starts bubbling, turn off heat. Cook the
  sauce for 3-4 minutes total. Cool sauce down and set aside.
• 5 Once the wings are done in the air fryer. Take them out and cool for 3-5
  minutes. This step is important to make the wings crispy! After cooling, brush a
  light coating of the korean spicy sauce on both sides of the wing.
• 6 To garnish, add some chopped green onions on top of the spicy wings! Enjoy!
