Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 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. Lightly grease the rack with non-stick cooking spray.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This helps to achieve crispy skin. Place the wings in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mix the baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Sprinkle this mixture over the chicken wings and toss until the wings are evenly coated.
Arrange the coated wings on the prepared rack in a single layer, ensuring they don’t touch each other for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the hot sauce, honey, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes. Stir and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the prepared sauce over the wings and toss until they are fully coated.
Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
