Instructions
Preparation Steps
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
Pat chicken wings completely dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss wings with baking powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Arrange wings in a single layer on the wire rack, leaving space between each. Bake for 25 minutes.
Flip wings and bake for another 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
While wings bake, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine honey, sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until simmering. Reduce heat and simmer for 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and stir in water if a thinner glaze is desired.
Remove wings from oven and toss immediately in the warm honey sriracha glaze until fully coated.
Transfer glazed wings to a serving platter. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve hot.
Notes
For extra crispiness, ensure wings are thoroughly dried before coating with baking powder mixture. Adjust sriracha amount to control heat level.
