Instant Pot Chicken Wings
With the Instant Pot, you can have juicy, tender wings with crispy, flavorful skin on the table in under 30 minutes. This makes them perfect for busy weeknight dinners, last-minute gatherings, or craving delicious chicken wings. The Instant Pot does most of the work, freeing you up to prepare other dishes or relax and enjoy quality time with family and friends.
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds chicken wings, patted dry
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- Sauce of Choice: Buffalo sauce, BBQ sauce, honey garlic sauce, etc.
Instructions
- Season: Toss the chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Instant Pot Magic: Pour the chicken broth into the Instant Pot. Place the trivet or steamer basket inside. Arrange the seasoned wings on the trivet. Close the lid and seal the valve. Cook on manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes before doing a quick release.
- Crisp and Saucy: Carefully transfer the wings to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Broil on high for 5-7 minutes or until the skin is crisp and golden brown. Toss the wings with your favourite sauce.
- Enjoy! Serve immediately with dipping sauces and sides, like celery sticks, carrots, and ranch or blue cheese dressing.
Tips:
- Patting the wings dry is crucial for crispy skin.
- Experiment with different sauces for endless flavour combinations.
- For even crispier skin, air-fry the wings instead of broiling them.
