Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture (this will help make sure they crisp up in the air fryer).
1.3 pounds chicken wings
Toss the wings in olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F
Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they begin to turn golden brown.
While the wings are cooking, whisk together chili garlic sauce, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, ginger, light brown sugar, lime zest, lime juice, and sesame oil in a small saucepan.
2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce, 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon ginger, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, 1 lime, 1 tablespoon sesame oil
Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Once the wings are crispy and cooked through, toss them in the sauce until they are fully coated and place them back in the air fryer for 3 more minutes or until the sauce has caramelized.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
