Recipe: Caribbean Air-Fried Chicken Wings

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs chicken wings

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tsp salt

• ½ tsp black pepper

• 1 tsp smoked paprika

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp onion powder

• ½ tsp ground allspice

• ½ tsp ground cinnamon

• 1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup)

• 1 tbsp lime juice

• ½ tbsp coconut aminos (or gluten-free soy sauce)

• ½ tsp mild chili powder (optional)

Instructions:

1. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey/maple syrup, and coconut aminos. Stir in all dry spices until a paste forms.

2. Coat the Wings: Toss the chicken wings in the marinade until fully coated. Let marinate at least 30 minutes (overnight is ideal!).

3. Air Fry: Preheat air fryer to 380°F. Arrange wings in a single layer and cook for 22–25 minutes, flipping halfway. Increase temp to 400°F for the last 2–3 minutes for extra crisp.

4. Serve & Enjoy: Garnish with extra lime and fresh herbs if desired.

These wings are perfect for weeknight dinners, weekend gatherings, or meal prep with a tropical twist. Let me know if you make them—tag @drsheenajoseph!
