Ingredients

  • Seasonings
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • kosher salt to taste

  • black pepper to taste

  • Main Protein
  • 2 pounds chicken wings

  • Sauce Components
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce (like Frank’s)

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (half a stick)

  • Alternative Ingredients
  • Turkey wings or cauliflower florets for a vegetarian option

  • Dairy-free margarine

  • Any preferred brand or a milder sauce for less heat

Directions

  • Line two medium baking sheets with aluminum foil. In a large bowl, mix the chicken wings with garlic powder and paprika; season with salt and pepper to coat evenly.
  • Pour 3/4 cup water into the bottom of the Instant Pot. Insert the trivet and arrange the wings on top. Secure the lid and set to manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Perform a quick release after cooking.
  • While the wings cook, melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and whisk in the hot sauce.
  • Toss the wings in half of the sauce, then broil on the prepared sheets until crisp (about 4 minutes per side). Toss again in the remaining sauce before serving.
