Our favourite tried-and-tested method for juicy and flavourful Vietnamese style chicken wings.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"air<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hello friends! We are so excited to share this recipe for our favourite Vietnamese-style air fryer chicken wings! This recipe alone is a good reason to buy an Air Fryer. The wings come out with a crispy skin and retain their juiciness. You can adjust the seasoning to your preference to make whatever style of wing you want, but these are our go-to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few months ago, we were on the hunt for a new air fryer. Many of our friends raved about the healthy meals they were making with this magical appliance. The selling point of any Air Fryer is it’s ability to cook your food with considerably less oil\/fat compared to deep frying or pan frying. The appliance operates the same as a convection oven which circulates air while cooking, but the smaller size allows your food to be cooked much quicker. This also cuts down on preheating time, which usually take just a couple of minutes. We love using the Air Fryer in place of our conventional oven during the summer months because it does not cause our apartment to heat up for HOURS after we are done cooking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking with less fat!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The best part about the air fryer is how little oil is required to achieve a perfectly crisp skin on your chicken wings or anything else that is traditionally fried. For this recipe, you do not need to add any extra oil! The fat from the chicken wings will saturate the starch coating enough to ‘fry’ the wings. This is much easier to do than to bring an entire pot of oil up to temperature for frying. Additionally, it is cost-effective as you are not spending $20 on a canister of oil to fry. There is also no need to store a vat of used oil in your pantry for ages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instant Vortex Air Fryer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After searching for a while, we found the perfect air fryer for us – The Instant Vortex!<\/a> It has a fantastic box-shaped design. Our condo kitchen has limited counter space so the design was an important purchasing factor. A couple of different air fryers were recommended to us, but they are large, dome shaped, and take up way too much counter space. The Instant Vortex is great because of it’s flat top! This area can be used to stack your serving plates while dinner’s cooking. The Instant Vortex heats up quickly and is easily cleaned with soap and water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These air fryer chicken wings are a delicious snack accompanied by your favourite cocktails or beer and a good TV show. Tossing with fresh herbs and a squeeze of citrus adds another dimension of flavour. Any authentic Vietnamese restaurant will serve wings, so I highly encourage you to go out and try them at your local spot to get an idea of the flavours we are going for in this recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our love for Vietnamese cuisine <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Vietnamese cuisine is one of my favourites because of the fresh components and delicate flavours. It is the perfect balance between sweet, sour, spicy and umami. It is not heavy or greasy so it is well-suited to my personal preferences for food in general. We were lucky to experience the beautiful city of Hanoi on our Asia trip in December of 2019. We dined at many wonderful restaurants and visited several fantastic bars. This trip made us realize that the Vietnamese food in Vancouver is just as good as in Vietnam. The quality and variety of dishes here in Vancouver is comparable due to the large Vietnamese-Canadian population. I feel extremely lucky and grateful to live in such a culturally diverse place!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
