Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
- 2 green onions, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper.
- Place the chicken wings in a large bowl and pour half of the honey mixture over them. Toss to coat the wings evenly.
- Arrange the chicken wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 40-45 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
- While the wings are baking, heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining honey mixture and simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the glaze thickens slightly.
- Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the honey glaze over them. Toss to coat the wings evenly.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy!
Honey glazed chicken wings have a rich history dating back to ancient China, where honey was used as a natural sweetener in cooking. This delectable dish gained popularity in the United States during the 1960s, particularly in the southern region where honey was abundant. Renowned chefs like Emeril Lagasse and Bobby Flay have put their own spin on this classic recipe, elevating it to new heights. Today, the best honey glazed chicken wings can be found in soul food restaurants in the southern states, where the wings are marinated in a blend of honey, soy sauce, and spices before being baked or fried to perfection.
