Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 0.25 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 2 tablespoons sriracha
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (freshly grated)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons chopped peanuts (for garnish)
- 2 scallions (thinly sliced, for garnish)
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, peanut butter, sriracha, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and vegetable oil until smooth and well-combined.
Pour half of the peanut sauce mixture over the chicken wings and toss to coat them evenly. Reserve the remaining sauce for later.
Arrange the coated chicken wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they aren’t touching.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
While the wings bake, warm the reserved peanut sauce in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a serving platter and drizzle the warmed peanut sauce over the top.
Garnish with chopped peanuts, sliced scallions, and sesame seeds for extra crunch and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Spicy Peanut Chicken Wings!
