Honey Garlic Chicken Wings: A Sticky and Flavorful Treat
Craving crispy chicken wings with a sweet and savory glaze? Honey garlic wings are the perfect solution! This recipe is easy to follow and delivers finger-lickin’ good results every time.
Ingredients:
- Wings:
- 2 pounds chicken wings, separated at the joint (drumettes and flats)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Sauce:
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (optional, for a kick)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Cooking Guide:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss the wings with vegetable oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- While the wings are baking, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, sriracha (if using), cornstarch, and red pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Once the wings are cooked through, remove them from the oven and increase the oven temperature to broil (high).
- Toss the wings in the honey garlic sauce until evenly coated. Return the wings to the baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the sauce is sticky and bubbly.
- Let the wings cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch or blue cheese.
Tips:
- For extra crispy wings, bake them for an additional 5-10 minutes after broiling.
- You can adjust the amount of sriracha to your desired level of spiciness.
- Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer until crispy.
- Feel free to experiment with other flavors! Add a pinch of ginger, sesame oil, or brown sugar to the sauce for a twist.
