Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Cornstarch
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2 tbsp Sriracha
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp Green onions (sliced)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
Step 2
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Season the wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the wings and toss until evenly coated.
Step 4
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Step 5
Flip the wings and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6
While the wings are baking, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, sriracha, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and butter. Stir until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 7
Once the wings are done, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated.
Step 8
Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy!
