These Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken Wings are a delightful twist on a classic favorite, offering a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on a large baking pan.
Using parchment paper can help prevent sticking.
In a saucepan, combine the soy sauce, honey, ground ginger, minced garlic, dry mustard, and rice vinegar. Heat over medium until the mixture is well combined and slightly thickened.
Stir constantly to prevent the glaze from burning.
Pour the glaze evenly over the chicken wings.
Use a basting brush to ensure all wings are coated.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 1 hour, turning them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Turning the wings helps them cook evenly and absorb more glaze.
Switch the oven to broil and cook the wings for an additional 5 minutes, or until they are golden and slightly crispy.
Keep a close eye on the wings to prevent burning.
Serve the wings hot, garnished with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired.
Serving immediately ensures the wings retain their crispy texture.
