Scale
Ingredients
- 2lbs chicken wings
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons coconut aminos or soy sauce (gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder)
- 1″ ginger root, grated or minced (or 1/2 tsp. ginger powder)
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Line baking sheet with aluminium foil. This step is optional, but it helps to reduce a messy cleanup!
- Place a wire rack on the baking sheet and line the rack with chicken wings. Season wings with a sprinkle of sea salt. (You can also place the chicken wings directly on the baking sheet, however using the rack helps to cook them evenly on all sides.)
- Transfer the chicken wings to the oven and cook for 35-40 minutes until crispy and cooked thru.
- While the chicken wings are baking, begin the sauce. Add the honey, coconut aminos (or soy sauce), sesame oil, ginger, garlic and salt to a small saucepan. On a low heat, cook the sauce, you are looking to reduce the sauce a little to that it becomes rich and sticky.
- When the chicken wings are done cooking, remove them from the oven. Transfer the sauce to a large bowl, add the chicken wings and toss them in the sauce.
- Once the wings are well coated, return them to the baking sheet (wire rack removed), and cover them with any remaining sauce.
- Turn the oven to broil, and transfer the wings back into the oven to broil for another 3-5 minutes. Keep a watchful eye on them to ensure that they do not burn, however you are looking to help crisp up the skin in the sauce.
- Once complete, transfer the wings to a bowl and serve with carrot sticks and celery.
- Enjoy!
