Another crispy air fryer wing recipe and these might be my new favorite wings! Seasoned to perfection and basted in a homemade flavor packed jerk-pineapple sauce, this recipe is so easy and mouth watering. There's some nice heat, but the sweetness of the pineapple balances everything out. For this recipe I used a Pineapple Pepper Jam (instead of Pineapple Preserves) that I picked up locally here in Arizona. I always love to support local businesses, so if you are in the area I highly recommend grabbing a few! They also ship too! https://thekitchenwitchtempe.com/
