Ingredients

6 Persons

1 kg

chicken wings (or 850g wingettes & drumettes)
2 tsp

baking powder
0.25

salt

DIP:

120 g

0% fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp

Whey Protein Neutral
1 tbsp

lemon juice
1 clove

garlic, crushed
30 g

blue cheese, crumbled
1 pinch

ground black pepper
1

spring onion, thinly sliced

DRESSING:

15 g

unsalted butter
50 g

hot sauce (like Frank’s red hot sauce)
1 pinch

sugar

TO SERVE:

4

celery stalks

Preparation

1

Cut the chicken wings into wingettes and drumettes, removing the wing tips (you can keep the wing tips in the freezer for making chicken stock at a later date). Pat the chicken dry with paper towels to remove as much moisture from the skin as possible. Toss them in a bowl with the baking powder and salt.
2

Fill the basket of the air fryer with the chicken, trying to leave a gap between them – you may need to do this in 2 batches.
3

Air Fry at 200C (400F) for 10 minutes then flip and cook for a further 10 minutes.
4

Meanwhile make the dip by whisking together all the ingredients, reserving some of the spring onion for garnish, in a small bowl. Sprinkle the reserved spring onion on top.
5

Once the wings are cooked, heat the butter, hot sauce and sugar in a small pot until melted and warmed through. Remove from the heat and toss the wings in the sauce to coat.
6

Serve the hot air fryer buffalo wings and celery stalks with the dip.
