One of my favorite things to do when cooking chicken in an Air Fryer is to toss it in hot sauce. But here's the thing to know.. Take the crispy chicken wings after they are almost all the way cooked, straight from the air fryer, and toss the wings in your sauce of choice, and then put them back into the air fryer to allow the sauce to glaze over them. Do NOT cook the raw wings with hot sauce or on them. You need them dry, so you get crispy chicken wings.
