Bake these Oven Baked Honey Garlic Chicken Wings for a crowd-pleasing appetizer or snack. They offer a perfect balance between deep, comforting flavor and a fresh glaze.

Ingredients

  • Chicken Wings (whole or separated)
  • Honey
  • Soy Sauce (or Tamari for gluten-free)
  • Garlic (minced)
  • Ginger (grated, optional)
  • Vinegar (rice or apple cider)
  • Cornstarch (for crisping)
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
  2. Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels. This helps you get crispy skin.
  3. In a bowl, toss the wings with a little salt, pepper, and cornstarch until lightly coated.
  4. Arrange the wings in a single layer on a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes.
  6. While the wings bake, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, vinegar, and ginger (if using) in a small saucepan.
  7. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring until slightly thickened. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
  8. Remove the wings from the oven. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
  9. Toss the baked wings thoroughly in the prepared honey garlic sauce.
  10. Return the sauced wings to the baking sheet.
  11. Bake for another 10-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
  12. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can bake the wings twice—once at a lower temperature to cook through, and a second time at a higher temperature after saucing.
  • Mei suggests tasting the sauce before tossing; adjust honey for sweetness or soy sauce for saltiness.
  • This recipe balances the deep flavor of tradition (Spoon) with a bright glaze (Sprout).
