Air-Fried Buffalo Wings
Air-fried Buffalo wings are a favorite appetizer, but without all the guilt or trouble that comes with deep-frying. They are tasty, tangy and tempting! This recipe only has three ingredients so they couldn't be easier. I like to use fresh whole chicken wings because they are meatier than the already sectioned chicken wings that you find in the freezer section of the store.
