Easy AirFryer Korean Fried Chicken

Korean fried chicken is always a hit. It's crunchy, flavorful, and addicting. This easy AirFryer version is healthier but maintains the original crunch and bold flavor. You won't believe how simple it is to make at home. The whole dish comes together so quickly and will be sure to impress.I like to serve my fried chicken with steamed rice!

The sauce is very adaptable so feel free to taste and adapt as you go. If you like it sweeter add more sugar, if you want more heat you can add chili flakes.
