My husband and I love wings, and we love spicy food! These Hot Wings were so good, we completely devoured them all, leaving a measly 2 wings to store in the fridge for "later", aka - when we needed a little somethin' somethin' long after we should've already been in bed. We just COULDN'T stop eating them! We set a couple aside for our boys before mixing them in the sauce - so this could still be a family friendly recipe! My homemade Blue Cheese Dressing just really takes these wings over the top! It's the perfect relief for the spice! And using the air fryer makes this so easy! Whether you're hosting guys night, game day, or the season finale of American Idol - you're probably gonna want some wings to complete that hors d’oeuvres spread!

Rinse chicken wings well and pat dry. Place all wing ingredients in a medium sized bowl and using your hands, mix really well to cover all wings. Cover and refrigerate for an hour.
Preheat air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 F.
Air fry marinated wings for 20 minutes, working in batches, and flipping halfway through with a tong.
Line a baking sheet with foil, then place a cooling rack over the baking sheet, and place cooked wings in the oven at 175 F to keep warm. The cooling rack will stop the wings from getting soggy.
While those are cooking, make your blue cheese dressing. Add all dressing ingredients to a medium sized bowl, mashing up the blue cheese chunks a bit until you get to a creamier consistency.
Cover and refrigerate the dressing until ready to use.
Now let's make our buffalo sauce! Add all sauce ingredients to a large bowl and whisk until combined. Toss all cooked wings liberally in the sauce, but not until just before eating them! This maintains the crispy skin!
Serve Hot Wings with green onions and chilled Blue Cheese Dressing
