Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings
Description
This recipe involves seasoning chicken wings simply with salt, pepper, and oil, then baking them at high temperature to develop crisp skin and juicy meat. The sauce blends honey’s sweetness with the heat from Sriracha and a depth from Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, and hoisin, creating a sticky coating that clings to the wings.
The wings are finished by tossing in the warm sauce to absorb the flavors fully before serving. Freshly chopped cilantro adds an herbal note that contrasts the richness of the glaze. The cooking method offers hands-off oven baking with a final quick sauce toss, suitable for a satisfying appetizer or main dish.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings 1.35 kg, or drumettes
- salt
- black pepper
- 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup sriracha
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon hoisin sauce
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a large bowl, toss the wings with salt and pepper and oil. Line a sheet pan with nonstick foil or parchment paper, and spread the wings evenly on the pan. Bake for about 50 minutes, turning the wings halfway through. In the last couple of minutes, you can turn on the broiler to get them to really crisp up. Keep an eye on them, though!
- When the wings are done, melt the butter in a skillet or wok and add the Sriracha, honey, rice wine, soy sauce, hoisin, and salt. Stir over low heat until bubbly. Transfer the wings from the baking sheet into the pan with the sauce. Toss until coated. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
