Chicken wings are a neutral-tasting protein that takes on pretty much any flavor you want to add. You can make wings as sweet or as spicy as you want.
This recipe takes the sweetness and the spice factor up a notch though! Peach preserves offer a wonderfully fruity taste while a combination of paprika, garlic, soy sauce, and hot sauce ramp up the flavor even more.
This finger-licking yummy chicken wings recipe is simple to follow and you probably already have most of the items needed. You can use chicken flats or drums or some of each since they have the same cooking time.
There’s nothing not to love about these sweet and spicy chicken wings and you can even cook them in an air fryer if you prefer to use that in place of a deep-fat fryer.
They’ll still come out perfectly cooked as well as crispy.

Can You Make Them Ahead?
Technically yes but they won’t stay as crispy so it’s best to make these and serve straight away.
Storage Instructions:
Leftovers will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
Variations and Substitutions:
Apricot preserves will work in place of peach preserves. Something else you can do is use fresh minced habaneros instead of the hot sauce. Habaneros and peaches have a special affinity. If you really don’t like spiciness, you can omit the hot sauce (or chilies) altogether. Also, feel free to cook them in an air fryer instead of a deep fryer. The cooking time should be similar.
