Ingredients

Servings

Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard or any medium-strong regular mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider or white vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper double the ingredients if you prefer a spicier kick at the end
  • 1 beaten egg

Chicken

  • 3 pounds chicken wings tips removed and drumettes separated (about 30 - 33 chicken wings
  • salt to taste

Instructions

Make the sauce

  1. Whisk all ingredients together in a large bowl until well combined.
  2. Separate and reserve about ¼ cup of the marinade into an airtight container and refrigerate.
  3. Set aside the bowl with the rest of the marinade.

Prepare the chicken

  1. Use a paper towel to remove any moisture from the chicken wings.
  2. Season the wings liberally with salt on both sides.
  3. Add them to the bowl with the reserved marinade.
  4. Toss the wings in the sauce and make sure that they are well coated with the marinade.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to one hour.
  6. Half-way through the marinating time, give them a good stir and turn the wings.
  7. When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit/180 degrees Celsius.
  8. Spread out the wings on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Toss each wing liberally through the marinade before placing them on the sheet.
  9. Brush the reserved ¼ cup marinade evenly over the wings.
  10. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the wings are golden brown, turning them over halfway through.
  11. Then turn the oven to broil, broil for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the wings are slightly crispy on top.

Notes

  • Instead of tomato paste, you can also use sugar-free ketchup.
  • When I set the oven to broil, I keep the wings on the same oven rack (in the middle.) Stay with the wings, and check after a minute into broiling because some broilers run hotter than others. I don't recommend longer than 3 minutes of broiling, because you don't want all that delicious sauce to dry up.
