Follow this recipe to make sticky, flavorful honey garlic chicken wings baked in your oven without frying.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings, separated into flats and drumettes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
  2. Pat the chicken wings very dry with paper towels. In a bowl, toss the wings with salt, pepper, and baking powder. The baking powder helps them crisp.
  3. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake for 25 minutes.
  4. While the wings bake, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Pour the slurry into the simmering sauce, whisking constantly until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  6. After the initial 25 minutes of baking, remove the wings from the oven. Brush half of the honey garlic sauce evenly over all the wings.
  7. Return the wings to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes.
  8. Remove the wings again. Brush the remaining sauce over the wings. Return them to the oven for a final 5 to 10 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning, until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
  9. Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, ensure your wings are completely dry before seasoning.
  • You can substitute rice vinegar for apple cider vinegar in the sauce if needed.
  • If you prefer a thinner glaze, use less cornstarch in the slurry.
