Let's make chicken wings in your Instant Pot!
This recipe is super easy and takes only 14 minutes.
Serve the wings as appetizer while your guests are waiting for the main dish.
For this recipe we only use the pressure cook function, so no need for the Air Fryer Lid.

In fact, these chicken wings are one of the best sides for spinach artichoke dip.
Can I use frozen wings?
Sure. In this case, increase the cooking time to 15 minutes (instead of 10).
What if I want crispy wings
If you still want your wings to be grilled, after cooking just broil them at a 375 ˚F for 10 minutes.

Notes
Can this recipe be doubled?
Yes, as long as it all fits in your Instant Pot! Double all of the ingredients, but leave cook time the same.
I am confused, I have read the recipe many times and no mention of air fryer yet in the Q and A section you mention IP and AF in an answer to VJ, combined cooking time of 20 minutes.
There's an accessory that is sold separately from the Instant Pot, the Crisp Lid or Air Fryer lid, that basically turns the Instant Pot into an air fryer. If you have one of those, there's an optional step at the end of this recipe to use it to make the wings more crispy. See the part above titled "How to make crispy chicken wings." You can also use the oven if you don't have an Air Fryer lid accessory. Hope that helps!
