Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 3 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet for even cooking.
Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel to ensure crispiness. In a large bowl, toss the wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cornstarch until evenly coated.
Drizzle the vegetable oil over the wings and toss again to evenly coat.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the wings over and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the honey lemon sauce. In a small saucepan, combine honey, lemon juice, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Heat over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Whisk in the unsalted butter until melted and the sauce becomes glossy. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the wings are fully cooked, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the honey lemon sauce over the wings and gently toss to coat evenly.
Place the glazed wings on a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and fresh parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Honey Lemon Chicken Wings!
