Step 1
In a shallow dish, mix together the honey, Sriracha, and water until everything is well combined. Toss the asparagus in the sauce, making sure each spear is nicely coated, and let it sit while you get the air fryer ready. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes. Once it’s heated, arrange the asparagus in the basket in a single layer and cook for around 3 minutes, until they’re tender but still have a bit of crunch. Serve right away and enjoy that sweet and spicy glaze!
Why you’ll love it

How to serve
Serve this flavorful asparagus as a vibrant side dish alongside grilled chicken, fish, or tofu. It also works great tossed into grain bowls or as a topping for salads to add a spicy-sweet kick.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the air fryer or oven to keep the asparagus crisp and the glaze sticky. Avoid microwaving as it may make the asparagus soggy.
