Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 0.3333 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tbsp green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the wings with olive oil and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss to coat evenly.
Arrange the seasoned wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 20 minutes.
While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine soy sauce, honey, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes until it slightly thickens, then remove from heat.
After the wings have baked for 20 minutes, remove them from the oven and brush generously with the prepared glaze. Flip the wings over and brush the other side with glaze as well.
Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, basting with more glaze halfway through, until they are fully cooked and caramelized. The wings should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Once done, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Transfer the wings to a serving platter and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sticky, flavorful glazed chicken wings!
