Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1.5 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 stalks scallions (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet and set aside.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Place the wings in a large bowl.
Season the wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Drizzle olive oil over the wings and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, ensuring they are not touching each other for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure both sides become golden and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the honey glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sriracha, and unsalted butter.
Stir the mixture continuously until the butter is melted and the glaze is smooth. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened, then remove it from heat.
Once the wings are fully cooked, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the honey glaze over the wings and toss them gently to coat evenly.
Place the glazed wings back on the wire rack and return them to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to caramelize the glaze slightly.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top and garnish with thinly sliced scallions before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Honey Pot Chicken Wings!
