Ingredients

• 2 pounds Chicken wings
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.5 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons Scallions (sliced for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a wire rack.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they get crispy in the oven.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, toss the wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cornstarch until evenly coated.

Step 4

Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip them over and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 5

While the wings are baking, prepare the sweet and tangy glaze. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, and Sriracha sauce. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture begins to slightly thicken (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

Once the wings are fully cooked and crispy, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the glaze over the wings and toss until they are thoroughly coated.

Step 7

Arrange the glazed wings on a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced scallions for garnish.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet and tangy flavors!
