Preheat the air fryer basket to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 2-3 minutes.
Season chicken wings with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and paprika. Add chicken wings to the basket and cook for 20-25 minutes, shaking about every 7 minutes. Cook the wings until they are crispy and golden.
Once done, remove the wings and place them in a large bowl.
While the wings are cooking, combine butter, minced garlic, honey, vinegar, hot sauce, soy sauce, and ginger powder over medium-high heat. Stir together until butter is melted completely and all ingredients are combined.
Pour the sauce over the cooked chicken wings in the bowl and toss to ensure all the chicken is covered in the sauce. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
Pat the wings dry before seasoning for the best crispy texture.
Air fryers can run slightly differently, so cooking times may vary. Allow 20 to 25 minutes for the wings to be cooked.
I love to add a bit of hot sauce into the honey garlic sauce. Omit this is you don't like spicy foods, or add a little more in if you like your wings hot!
