Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 stalks green onions (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the wire rack with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Pat the chicken wings dry using paper towels to ensure they crisp up nicely. Place the wings in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken wings, tossing them to ensure they are evenly coated.
Step 4
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, making sure they do not overlap.
Step 5
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, flipping them halfway through. Bake until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
Step 6
While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the hot sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then lower the heat and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Step 7
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the hot sauce glaze over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
Step 8
Optional: Finely slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the wings for a fresh garnish.
Step 9
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or a side of crisp celery and carrot sticks!
