Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1/2 cup honey

- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Cooking spray or oil for baking
How to Make Crispy Honey-Glazed Chicken Wings
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet. This will allow air circulation and help the wings get crispy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, toss the chicken wings with cornstarch until they are evenly coated. This will help create that irresistible crispy texture.
- Add the coated wings to the honey mixture and toss until each wing is well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes for the best flavor.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Spray or brush them lightly with cooking spray or oil to enhance the crispiness.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, turning the wings halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy. For extra crispiness, broil on high for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle with any leftover glaze if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure to dry the wings with paper towels before coating them with cornstarch. This will help them crisp up better in the oven.
- For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the honey glaze.
- If you prefer a more intense flavor, marinate the wings in the glaze for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
Easy Variations
- Spicy Honey Wings: Add sriracha or your favorite hot sauce to the honey glaze for a spicy twist.
- Garlic Parmesan Wings: After baking, toss the wings in melted butter, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Teriyaki Wings: Substitute the soy sauce with teriyaki sauce for a different flavor profile.
What to Serve With It
- Creamy ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
- Fresh veggie sticks like celery and carrots.
- A side of crispy fries or potato wedges.
- A light salad to balance the meal.
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the wings on a baking sheet and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. This will help maintain their crispy texture.
