Scale
Gathering ingredients shouldn’t feel like a scavenger hunt. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound chicken wings or drumettes
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)

- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- Chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Let’s get cooking! Here’s how to bring this dish to life:
- Preheat your airfryer to 400°F. This gives you time to prepare everything else while ensuring the chicken hits a hot cooker.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. This is your crispy coating.
- Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving that golden, crispy finish.
- Coat each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Place them in a single layer in the airfryer basket.
- Cook the chicken in the airfryer for about 25 minutes, flipping halfway through. The chicken should be golden brown and cooked through.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare the glaze by combining soy sauce, honey, gochujang, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and minced garlic in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat until thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Once the chicken is done, toss it in the glaze, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions if using, and serve immediately.
