How To Make Honey Wings Recipe?
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and spray a 33×23 cm or larger casserole dish with nonstick spray.
- Prepare the wings: Cut the chicken wings into 3 sections, discarding the wing tips. Coat them with salt and pepper to taste.
- Mix the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, vegetable oil, ketchup, minced garlic, and cayenne pepper. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.
- Coat the wings: Place the wings in the prepared casserole dish, then pour the sauce over the wings, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Bake the wings: Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has caramelized.
Recipe Tips:
- Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic gives a better flavor than pre-minced garlic.
- Broil for crispiness: To make your wings extra crispy, broil them for 2-3 minutes at the end of baking.
- Season well: Make sure to season the wings with enough salt and pepper to bring out the sauce’s flavor.
- Control the spice: Adjust the cayenne pepper to make your wings as spicy as you like.
- Let them rest: After baking, let the wings rest for a few minutes to keep them juicy.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the leftover Honey Wings cool to room temperature. Then, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: Once cooled, place the wings in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat: Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Cook the wings for 5-7 minutes to reheat them and keep them crispy.
