Ingredients:

For the Wings:

• 2 pounds chicken wings, split at joints, tips discarded
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Sriracha Honey Glaze:

• 1/3 cup Sriracha sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon grated ginger
• Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish

Step-by-Step Guide:

Step 1: Preheat Oven Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Season Wings In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with vegetable oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well-coated.

Step 3: Bake Wings Spread the seasoned wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.

Step 4: Make the Sriracha Honey Glaze While the wings are baking, in a saucepan over medium heat, combine Sriracha sauce, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens slightly.

Step 5: Toss Wings in Glaze Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the Sriracha honey glaze over the wings and toss until each wing is generously coated.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the wings for a vibrant garnish. Serve immediately and watch them disappear!
