INSTRUCTIONS
Add 1/2 cup unsalted chicken broth to the Instant Pot. Place a steamer basket inside the pot and arrange 32 oz chicken wings in it. Cook on the “Meat/Stew” setting for 12 minutes.

Quick-release the pressure and remove the chicken to a clean plate. Set aside.

Make the buffalo sauce: Add 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp ground black pepper, 1/4 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp paprika, 1/8 tsp cayenne, 1/2 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp freshly chopped thyme, 1/2 tsp honey, and 3 tbsp buffalo sauce to the pot. Cook everything on the “Sauté” setting for 1 minute.

In a small bowl, whisk 2 tsp all-purpose flour in 2 tbsp water.
Add the flour-water mixture to the Instant Pot. Continue to cook for 7 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Toss the chicken wings with the buffalo sauce to coat evenly.

Add the coated chicken wings to the air fryer, fry at 375℉ for 7 minutes.

While waiting, make the dip: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp Japanese mayonnaise, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp sour cream, and 1 tsp freshly chopped coriander.

Remove the chicken wings from the air-fryer. Enjoy them hot with the mayo dip on the side, and 4 oz carrot and 4 oz celery sticks as dippers.
