Notes
This recipe serves 4 and contains 2 net carbs per serving.
Try to leave enough time to marinate the wings first. The longer they sit in the marinade, the juicier and more tantalizing they become.
The homemade piri piri seasoning already has salt in it, so taste the marinade first before adding additional salt to it.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels before coating them in the marinade, for extra crispy skin.
You can also air fry this recipe at 400F for 20 minutes. Flip halfway.
For more spicy flavor, add some cayenne pepper, hot sauce, or more of the peri peri sauce.
