Instructions
-
Preheat the broiler and line rimmed baking sheets with foil, then spray with nonstick spray.
-
Place a trivet and 3/4 cup water or stock in the Instant Pot inner pot.
-
Cut whole chicken wings at the joint, sprinkle with kosher salt, and arrange them on the trivet.
-
Lock the Instant Pot lid, set the steam release to sealing, and pressure cook on high for 10 minutes.
-
After 10 minutes, allow 5 minutes of natural pressure release, then carefully vent to release any remaining pressure.
-
While wings cook, combine hot sauce, butter, vinegar, black pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne (if desired) in a saucepan, bringing to a simmer for 1 minute.
-
Drain the cooked wings, transfer to a bowl, and toss with about half of the prepared sauce mixture.
-
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat source for 5 minutes, then turn and broil for another 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown.
-
Remove wings to a bowl, drizzle with the remaining sauce, and serve with celery, carrot sticks, and dipping dressing.
