Make sticky, sweet, and spicy chicken wings crispy in the oven without deep frying. This recipe uses a simple baking powder technique for maximum crunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings, separated into flats and drumettes
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (aluminum-free)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup Sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top of the sheet.
  2. Pat the chicken wings very dry using paper towels. This step is key for crispiness.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the dry wings with baking powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack, ensuring they do not touch.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes.
  6. While the wings bake, prepare the sauce: In a small saucepan, combine honey, Sriracha, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and garlic powder. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring until the mixture is smooth and just begins to simmer. Remove from heat.
  7. After 25 minutes, flip the wings over. Return them to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove the wings from the oven. Place them in a clean, large bowl. Pour about half of the prepared sauce over the wings and toss gently to coat.
  9. Return the sauced wings to the wire rack and bake for a final 5 minutes to set the glaze.
  10. Serve immediately with any remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, chill the seasoned wings uncovered in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours before baking.
  • If you prefer a thicker glaze, simmer the sauce longer until it reduces slightly before tossing the wings.
  • Use a meat thermometer to confirm the wings are fully cooked for food safety.
