THESE AIR-FRIED SPICY CHICKEN WING DRUMETTES ARE SUPER CRISPY
Chicken wing drumettes (the upper part of the wing) are a smart choice for air frying-their small size means you don't have to spend all day cooking endless batches. Traditional drumettes require tons of oil to guarantee maximum crispy goodness; this genius recipe gets it done with just a tablespoon of super-flavorful sesame oil. To get them extra crispy, give the drumettes a turn during cooking. Serve these Asian-inspired wings over brown rice, or double the recipe and serve as an appetizer.

Steps:
- Place chicken in single layer in air fryer basket; coat well with cooking spray. Cook at 400°F until skin is very crispy, 30 minutes, turning drumettes over halfway through cooking.
- Meanwhile, stir together vinegar, honey, stock, soy sauce, oil, crushed red pepper, and garlic in a small skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium-high; cook until slightly thickened and almost syrupy, 6 minutes. Place drumettes in a medium bowl. Add honey mixture, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with peanuts and chives.

Steps:
- If the chicken drumsticks are wet, place the legs on a plate and pat them dry with a paper towel. If they don't have too much excess moisture, there is no need to dry them first.
- Place the drumsticks in a medium-sized mixing bowl and add in the oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper (optional). Toss until the chicken drumsticks are evenly coated in the oil and spices.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Once heated to temperature, place the chicken drumsticks in the air fryer tray. They should be in a single layer on the tray to make sure that they cook evenly and air fry to a nice crisp. If your air fryer is too small to accommodate this amount of drumsticks, cook them in two batches.
- Cook the chicken for a total of 20-22 minutes. Flip the drumsticks over after about 10 minutes. Since every air fryer is different (and the drumsticks might be slightly different sizes), your total cooking time may vary.
- Once the chicken drumsticks are cooked through and crispy on the outside, remove them from the tray. Serve them with a side like rice, fried potatoes, or French fries.
