Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings
- 0.5 cup soy sauce
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons green onions (optional, chopped for garnish)
Instructions
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in the crock pot.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt to make the sauce.
Pour the sauce over the chicken wings, ensuring they are well coated.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2.5 hours, stirring once halfway through to evenly coat the wings with sauce.
Once cooked, use tongs to carefully remove the chicken wings and place them on a broiler-safe baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Pour the slurry into the sauce left in the crock pot and whisk until it thickens (this should take about 5 minutes on the high heat setting).
Brush the thickened sauce generously over the wings.
Optional: Broil the wings in the oven on high for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce caramelizes slightly and the wings develop a crispy texture.
Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired, and serve hot.
