4 servings
For the wings
- 2 lb chicken wings, split into flats and drumettes, tips removed
Ingredient noteOn a low histamine diet, fresh poultry is naturally low in histamine, but levels climb as it is stored, so this depends on starting with very fresh or properly frozen chicken rather than on anything the recipe itself guarantees. It is likely fine when freshly cooked. If you prefer to always avoid chicken wings, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient noteSmall amounts of ground ginger are often well-tolerated on a low histamine diet. This recipe only uses about 1/8 teaspoon per serving. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For the sauce
- ¼ cup coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
Ingredient noteSmall amounts of fresh ginger are often well-tolerated on a low histamine diet. This recipe only uses about 1/4 teaspoon per serving. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp arrowroot starch
- 1 tsp coconut oil
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)

Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Air fry at 400°F (205°C) for 12 minutes, then flip the wings with tongs and cook for another 10–13 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a drumette (not touching bone) reads 165°F (74°C).
