Tips for Perfect Chicken Wings

• For extra crispy wings, air fry them after pressure cooking for 5-7 minutes at 390°F (200°C).
• Add additional spices or herbs to the seasoning mixture to customize the flavor.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken wings reaches 165°F (74°C) before serving.

Storage and Reheating

• Store leftover chicken wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, microwave the wings for 1-2 minutes, or until warmed through.
