Ingredients
Chicken Wings
- 2 to 3 pounds chicken wings drumettes and flats
- 1 tablespoon baking powder aluminium-free
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Bang Bang Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1-2 teaspoon Sriracha hot sauce
- 1 pinch salt to taste
Instructions
Chicken Wings
- Place a wire rack on a baking sheet. Place 2 to 3 pounds chicken wings on a large cutting board. Use paper towels to pat the chicken wings as dry as possible. This helps the skin crisp up during cooking.
- In a small bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the wings and toss to coat thoroughly.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Refrigerate, uncovered, for 12 to 24 hours to allow the coating to adhere and for the skin to dry.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Transfer the wings directly from the refrigerator to the oven. Roast for 30 minutes, or until the wings are crispy, golden brown, and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Cooking time may vary based on wing size.
Cup of Yum
Bang Bang Sauce
- While the wings are cooking, prepare the Bang Bang sauce. In a small bowl whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce,1 tablespoon honey1-2 teaspoon sriracha hot sauce, and 1 pinch salt until smooth. Adjust salt and spice levels to taste.
- Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Short on time? Use the "cheater" method! Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and bake the wings for about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Once done, remove the wings and increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Place the pan back in the oven for an additional 30-45 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
