Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt. Stir until combined.
  2. In a large bowl, add the chicken wings and the seasoning mixture. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
  3. Add the chicken wings to the Instant Pot and pour in the hot sauce and butter. Close and lock the lid, and set the pressure valve to sealing.
