Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 1 tbsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Sriracha sauce
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp Optional sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack over the baking sheet.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in the bowl with the seasoning mixture. Toss the wings until they are evenly coated.
Arrange the seasoned wings on the wire rack in a single layer, making sure they are not touching to allow for even cooking and crisping.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, make the spicy Sriracha sauce by melting the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Once melted, stir in the Sriracha sauce, honey, and rice vinegar. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce is well combined and slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
When the wings are finished baking, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the Sriracha sauce over the wings and gently toss to coat evenly.
Transfer the saucy wings to a serving platter. If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy these spicy, flavorful Sriracha chicken wings!
