Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a baking rack on top. Spray the rack lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Dry wings ensure better crisping.
In a large bowl, toss the wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and baking powder until evenly coated. The baking powder is key to achieving a crispy texture.
Arrange the wings on the prepared baking rack in a single layer, making sure theyβre not touching to allow for proper airflow.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip them over and bake for an additional 20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
While the wings cook, prepare the sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the peanut butter, grape jelly, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha, and vegetable oil. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the warm peanut butter and jelly sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated.
Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and garnish with cilantro, if desired, for a pop of freshness and color.
Serve immediately and enjoy this sweet, savory, and slightly spicy treat!
