Notes
This recipe serves 3 and contains 6 net carbs per serving.
Make sure you check for doneness with a meat thermometer. An internal temperature of 165F will tell that the wings are done and ready to be devoured.
Chicken stock usually contains some salt, so taste the sauce before adding any extra.
If you have a little more time, try marinating the turkey wings before cooking. The turkey wings turn out so much juicier.
This recipe will work for white or dark meat. Just substitute turkey wings for turkey thighs, turkey breast, or turkey drumsticks, but you might have to adjust the time.
It is important to deglaze the instant pot by scraping the bottom. Deglazing will help prevent a burn notice and add more flavor to the dish.
