Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 stalks green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the wire rack with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pat the chicken wings dry using paper towels to ensure they crisp up nicely. Place the wings in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mix together the baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken wings, tossing them to ensure they are evenly coated.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, making sure they do not overlap.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, flipping them halfway through. Bake until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the hot sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then lower the heat and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the hot sauce glaze over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
Optional: Finely slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the wings for a fresh garnish.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or a side of crisp celery and carrot sticks!
