Wings

Method

Preparing the Wings

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    Season the Wings

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and baking powder. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Arrange on Baking Sheet

    Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer on the rack.

  4. 4

    Bake the Wings

    Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.

Making the Hot Honey Sauce

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Heat the Sauce

    Stir the mixture until it starts to simmer, then reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 7

    Remove from Heat

    Once the sauce has thickened slightly, remove it from the heat and set aside.

Coating the Wings

  1. 8

    Toss Wings in Sauce

    Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the hot honey sauce over them. Toss until the wings are fully coated.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Serve the hot honey wings immediately, garnished with additional hot sauce or fresh herbs if desired.
