Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, BBQ sauce, minced garlic, and lemon juice.
- Drizzle the chicken wings with olive oil and season with salt, black pepper, and chili flakes.
- Toss the wings in the sauce mixture, ensuring each wing is well-coated.
- Lay out the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Bake in the oven for 35 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and fully cooked.
- Halfway through, turn the wings to ensure even cooking and caramelization.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Notes
TIPS
- For an added kick, add more chili flakes or consider using smoked paprika.
- Always allow your wings to come to room temperature before baking; this ensures even cooking.
- Instead of baking, these Honey BBQ Chicken Wings can also be grilled. Just make sure to monitor them closely to prevent charring.
- Honey can be quite sweet; adjust to taste if you prefer a tangier BBQ flavor.
-
- Serve your Honey BBQ Chicken Wings with a side of crunchy celery sticks and carrot sticks.
- Consider a blue cheese or ranch dip to complement the sweetness of the Honey BBQ.
- A refreshing coleslaw or a green salad can balance out the flavors perfectly.
- And, of course, don’t forget some napkins – things might get a little messy!
