Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the low sodium soy sauce, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, honey, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, olive oil, and liquid smoke. Whisk together until you have a smooth sauce.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This helps the sauce adhere better.
Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the sauce. Toss until the wings are fully coated in the sauce.
Arrange the coated wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not touching each other.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, flip the wings over and bake for another 25 minutes, or until they are tender and cooked through with crispy edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the wings cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve with your choice of low-sodium sides and enjoy your flavorful, healthier BBQ chicken wings.
