Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken Wings are the ultimate game day snack that combines the rich flavors of sweet honey and savory garlic. These wings not only bring a delightful stickiness that coats each bite but also pack a punch of flavor that's irresistible.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 pounds chicken wings
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Chopped green onions (for garnish)
Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the chicken wings to the marinade and toss until they are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or air fryer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer on the rack and bake for 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through.
During the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush additional honey glaze over the wings.
Once cooked, remove the wings from the oven or air fryer. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
