I seasoned these with chili lime salt then pressure cooked them on high on a trivet with 1 cup of water and some lime juice for 10 minutes
Once they were done I tossed them with some smokey chipotle hot sauce and then crisped them up in the air fryer at 400f for 5 minutes per side! You could also do this step under the broiler on your oven if you don’t have an air fryer
They came out super tender and juicy! They were slightly under seasoned so I might make an actual sauce next time
BONUS: there was a full cup of chickeny limey broth in the bottom of the instant pot so I sliced some potatoes in half and set them directly in the liquid and pressure cooked them for about 8 minutes and they turned out awesome!
I never make wings with the instant pot, maybe I should!
This was my first time trying it and I will definitely do it again!
This is awesome!! And I love the extra idea with the potatoes! Thanks for sharing :)
I like trying to tweak instant pot recipes to make them into a whole meal lol
Do you need the IP? I figured you could cook the wings in the air fryer alone.
I definitely could have done the air fryer alone but they definitely would have dried out more
I’ve never used a pressure cooker before. Would you say it helps render the fat before a quick sear?
It definitely does! It kept the wings super juicy!
I thought air fryers eliminated the need for your food to be turned due to the convection and the food sitting on a screen or grill. (I don’t own one)
I can only speak to the specific air fryer I have, it will definitely cook things evenly without having to turn them but to get it crispy all over I have to turn them
This looks like drumsticks, not wings.
