Description
Honey Garlic Chicken Wings are sticky, sweet, and savory with a rich glaze made from honey, garlic, soy sauce, and butter. They work well as a crowd-pleasing appetizer for game day, parties, and casual dinners.
Ingredients
2 pounds chicken wings
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 tablespoons butter
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sriracha or hot sauce (optional)
1 tablespoon chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment or foil.
2. Pat the chicken wings dry and toss them with salt, black pepper, and olive oil.
3. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the wings are golden and cooked through.
5. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, then add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
6. Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and sriracha if using, then simmer the sauce for 2 to 3 minutes until glossy.
7. Transfer the baked wings to a large bowl and toss them with the honey garlic sauce.
8. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Pat the wings dry before baking so the skin turns crisp.
Simmer the sauce only briefly so the honey does not scorch.
Serve the wings right away for the best texture.
