- Press the 'manual' button, next press the adjust button and lower the time to 10 minutes. Note: it will take 13 - 15 minutes to come to pressure before it will start the countdown and start cooking.
- You can either let the pressure release naturally which will take an additional 10 minutes or carefully quick release the pressure like I do. Make sure to wear an oven mitt so you don't get burned by the steam.
- Unseal the pressure cooker lid, remove chicken wings, and place them in a baking dish.
- Anytime during the cooking of the chicken wings, you can make the marinade. Place soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, onion powder, and basil in a mixing bowl and whisk the ingredients until they are combined.1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup honey, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon basil
- Pour marinade on the chicken and set the oven to broil (high). As you are waiting for the oven to heat up, flip the wings in the marinade a few times.
- Stick the baking dish under the broiler for 3 minutes, remove from oven and flip the wings, broil for 2 minutes. Remove and flip the wings one more time and broil for another 2 minutes until crispy on all sides.
- Plate chicken wings and pour marinade in a little dipping bowl
- Pick up a wing, dip it in the marinade, eat, and enjoy.
Notes
Helpful tips
- Depending on how full the cooker is, it takes around 10 - 15 minutes to come to full cooking pressure. (Similar to preheating your oven, you'll need to factor this into your prep time.)
- You can either wait for the pressure to release naturally or you can do a quick release. Here's how: don an oven mitt and carefully nudge the venting valve to the venting position.
- When it's time to crisp up the skin, you can either add the chicken to a large baking dish and pour the marinade in with the wings. Or you can also line a large jelly roll pan with aluminum foil before adding the wings and marinade to it.
- If you want a different marinade or sauce, you can use buffalo chicken sauce or your favorite barbecue sauce.
