Instant Pot Asian Glazed Chicken Wings

January 27, 2019 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

These Instant Pot Asian Glazed Chicken Wings have lots of flavor with a little bit of sweet, lots of sticky sauce and the level of spicy can be adjusted for your family!

I used to make chicken wings for my family on a regular basis and then for whatever reason, they sort of slipped off my radar. Then a few months ago, I ordered some wings from our local pizza place and that made me start craving them again.

It turns out it was just in time for football season. If you’re hosting a game day party or having a big get-together for the Super Bowl, these are a perfect crowd-pleasing food.  For us, we didn’t even need a special occassion – I made them for a weekend lunch and we gobbled them up!

These wings do have a lot of ingredients and generally speaking, I’m a lazy cook. But I had most everything on hand already since we regularly make Asian-inspired food at home. These are published on my other blog, Rose Bakes, but a some of our favorites are Crock Pot Beef & Veggies over Rice, homemade sushi, and Homemade Chinese Orange Pineapple Chicken to name a few.

I did have to buy the Housin and Ponzu Sauces – those were new for me.  And actually – I think I should’ve gotten the non-lime Ponzu sauce, but the one I purchased worked 🙂  Also, skip the Sriracha Sauce if you don’t want spicy wings. I like a little touch of spicy, but not so much that my kids complain.

Start with 4 pounds of frozen wings.

Put the chicken wings in your Instant Pot and Cook on high pressure for 4 minutes with the rack on the bottom and 1 cup of water.

Note: If you are using fresh wings, be sure to add 2 cups of water.  If you are new to using your Instant Pot — you can manually enter the pressure time by hitting “manual”.  The time will defaut to 30 minutes;  you will need to bring it down to 4. Once you hit the desired time the pressure cooker will start automatically.

Next, while the wings are cooking (it’ll take about 10 minutes for the pot to seal + cook time)…

Make the sauce.

Then you’ll add all the sauces, brown sugar, lime, orange, garlic, ginger, and the bottoms of the green onions (white part only) into a pot on the stove and let it reduce to about half.  I used diced sweet onion inestead of the green onions… don’t ask – I just wasnt’ thinking.  Once your sauce is reduced, strain it to get rid of the pieces of ginger and onion.

Preheat oven to 450°F.

Once the wings are done in the Instant Pot, you should release  the pressure. (Turn the black knob to “venting” at the top of your pot. Be sure not to put your hands in the way of the steam!)

Place the wings on a sheet pan, place in the oven for 10 minutes on 450°F.  You can do this directly on a cookie sheet, but I prefer to use a silicone mat under the wings to make cleanup a little bit easier.

Take them out, then coat with the reduced sauce. I find the easiest way to do this is to put them in the pot with the sauce, then stir them up with a spoon until coated.

Place them back on the cookie sheet and in the oven again for 5 minutes on 450°F then serve!  If you like them a little crispy, you can put them under the broiler for a minute or two. That’s my favorite way to serve them!

Serve them hot and enjoy!

Garnish with the tops of the green onions, sliced!  We all like to eat our wings with either Blue Cheese Dressing or Ranch Dressing, but they’re delicious all on their own too!
