Ingredients
Prepare Chicken Wings
- 2 lbs. Chicken Wings
- ⅓ cup Flour
- ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- Salt and Black Ground Pepper (to taste)
Prepare Honey Garlic Glaze
- ⅓ Cup Honey
- 2 Tsp Sesame Oil
- 1 Tbsp Ginger (fresh) (minced)
- 1 Tbsp Garlic (fresh) (minced)
- 3 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- ½ Tsp Chili Powder
- ½ Tsp Red Chili Flakes (optional for heat)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Wings: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture for better crisping. In a large bowl, mix the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the wings in the flour mixture until evenly coated. Place the wings on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Prepare the Honey Garlic Glaze: Make the sauce – In a small saucepan over medium heat, add honey, sesame oil, minced ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, chili powder, and red chili flakes (if using). Stir and bring the mixture to a light simmer for 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.
- Coat the Wings and Serve: Place the cooked wings in a large bowl, pour the honey garlic glaze over them, and toss until evenly coated.
- Serve immediately: Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired, and enjoy while hot!
