Ingredients and Method
Ingredients
- 2 lbs ButcherBox.ca Chicken Wings
- 2 tbsp olive oil, or any neutral oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/3 cup honey
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, optional for heat
Method
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t touching for even cooking.
- Bake for 25 minutes, then flip each wing using tongs to promote browning on both sides.
- While the wings bake, combine honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and red pepper flakes in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Simmer the sauce for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
- Remove the wings from the oven after 40 minutes total, or when they reach an internal temperature of 165°F and are golden brown.
- Immediately toss the hot wings in the honey garlic sauce until fully coated.
- Return the sauced wings to the baking sheet and broil on high for 2-3 minutes to caramelize the glaze, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Let the wings rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
