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!
