Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 0.5 cup soy sauce
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.5 tsp ground ginger
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
- 2 green onions (sliced, for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the wings in a large mixing bowl.
In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, unsalted butter, minced garlic, ground ginger, and black pepper. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the butter is melted and the brown sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.
Pour about 2/3 of the sauce over the chicken wings in the bowl. Toss the wings to ensure they are evenly coated. Reserve the remaining sauce for basting during baking.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, flip each wing over, and brush them generously with the reserved sauce.
Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and caramelized, with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Optional: Turn on the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to achieve extra caramelization. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Transfer them to a serving platter and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
Serve the caramelized baked chicken party wings warm and enjoy!
