Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds chicken wings
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 cup ketchup
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional, for heat)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Place a wire rack on top of the foil-lined sheet.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for ensuring crispy skin.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the wings are evenly coated.

Step 4

Place the seasoned wings on the wire rack in a single layer, making sure they are not touching each other.

Step 5

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip the wings over and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.

Step 6

While the wings bake, prepare the BBQ sauce by whisking together ketchup, honey, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and sriracha (if using) in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

Step 7

Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly. Remove the sauce from heat and set it aside.

Step 8

Once the wings are finished baking, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the warm BBQ sauce over the wings and toss until they are fully coated.

Step 9

Return the sauced wings to the wire rack and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize and become sticky.

Step 10

Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as-is!
