Method
Preparation
Prepare the Chicken Wings
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. In a mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
Baking
Bake the Wings
Arrange the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
Making Chica Sauce
Prepare the Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together the hot sauce, honey, lime juice, cilantro, cayenne pepper, and Dijon mustard until smooth and well combined.
Combine
Toss Wings with Sauce
Once the chicken wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the Chica Sauce over the wings and toss until they are fully coated.
Serving
Serve and Garnish
Serve the wings immediately, garnished with lime wedges and extra cilantro leaves for a fresh touch.
