Honey Garlic Chicken Wings Recipe (Oven Baked)
Description
The recipe begins by drying chicken wings and coating them with a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper, enhancing the skin's texture when baked. After an initial 35-minute bake, the wings are coated in a honey garlic sauce made by simmering honey, soy sauce, water, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and a cornstarch slurry to thicken. This creates a sweet, aromatic, and slightly spicy glaze.
The wings return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes, turning midway, which helps the sauce adhere and caramelize slightly for a flavorful finish. After baking, letting the wings cool briefly thickens the glaze further, and stirring ensures even coating. The result is wings with a crispy exterior and a sticky, flavorful sauce clinging to each piece.
These wings can be stored refrigerated and reheated by oven or air fryer to maintain their texture. This makes them suitable for preparing ahead or enjoying as a snack or main dish.
Ingredients
- 50 chicken wings
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Sauce
- ½ cup honey
- ⅓ cup water
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger fresh, minced
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Dab wings with paper towels until completely dry.
- Toss wings with flour, salt and pepper. Remove any excess flour and brush with olive oil (or use an olive oil spray).
- Line a pan with foil and then place parchment paper on top (you may need 2 pans) and bake for 35 minutes, turning at 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine sauce ingredients in a small pan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer about 10 minutes or until slightly thickened and sauce coats the back of a spoon.
- Take wings from oven, toss with sauce and return to the oven for 10 minutes, turning after 5 minutes.
- Allow to cool 10 minutes. As the sauce cools, it thickens. Stir the wings every few minutes to coat in the sauce as it thickens.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat wings in the oven or air fryer to keep skin crispy and warm thoroughly.
