Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings
- 3 tablespoons char siu marinade powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon chicken bouillon

Marinate the Wings:
- In a large bowl, combine char siu powder, sugar, fish sauce, light soy sauce, hoisin sauce, garlic powder, grated or powder ginger, and lemon juice.
Coat the Wings:
- Place the chicken wings in the bowl with the marinade, ensuring each wing is thoroughly coated. Allow the wings to marinate for at least 1 hour, or preferably, overnight in the refrigerator for richer flavors.
Preheat the Air Fryer:

Rest and Serve:
