Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp sriracha sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack lightly with cooking oil to prevent sticking.
In a large bowl, pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step helps the wings crisp up in the oven.
In a small bowl, mix the baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle this mixture over the chicken wings and toss until all the wings are evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken wings on the prepared wire rack, making sure they are spaced out and not touching. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
While the wings are baking, prepare the Honey Sriracha glaze. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, and lime juice, and let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the chicken wings are crispy and golden brown, remove them from the oven. Transfer the wings to a large mixing bowl and pour the Honey Sriracha glaze over them. Toss the wings in the glaze until they are evenly coated.
Transfer the glazed wings to a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with chopped green onions, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
