Directions
Combine the honey, Sriracha, and a little water in a shallow dish until everything comes together nicely. Toss the asparagus in the sauce, making sure each spear is well coated, and let it sit while you get the air fryer ready. Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes. Once it’s heated, spread the asparagus out in the basket in a single layer and cook for around 3 minutes, or until they’re tender but still have a bit of crunch. Enjoy!

How To Store For Later
