Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 cup coconut aminos
- 1/3 cup honey
- 4 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil a baking rack placed over a baking sheet.
In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with the avocado oil, salt, and black pepper until well coated.
Spread the wings out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet or rack. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the honey garlic sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the coconut aminos, honey, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, grated ginger, and sesame oil.
Bring the sauce mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Place the baked wings in a large bowl and pour the honey garlic sauce over the top. Toss well to ensure each wing is thoroughly coated.
Transfer the glazed wings to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Paleo Honey Garlic Wings!
