A straightforward recipe for making very crispy chicken wings in the oven using baking powder for texture, coated in a sweet and spicy honey sriracha glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings (flats and drumettes)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (aluminum-free)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top of the foil.
  2. Pat the chicken wings completely dry using paper towels. This step is key for crispiness.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the dry wings with the baking powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack, ensuring they do not touch.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes. Flip the wings over and bake for another 20 to 25 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and very crispy.
  6. While the wings bake, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the honey, sriracha, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
  7. Heat the sauce mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it simmers and thickens slightly, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  8. Remove the crispy wings from the oven and place them in a large, clean bowl.
  9. Pour about half of the sauce over the hot wings and toss gently to coat them evenly.
  10. Serve immediately with the remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Use aluminum-free baking powder for the best results and flavor.
  • Do not skip patting the wings dry; excess moisture prevents crisping.
  • For extra sticky wings, return the sauced wings to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes after tossing, watching closely to prevent burning the sauce.
