Roasted Honey Chicken Wings

I’m usually a little leery of baked wings that are marinaded in anything with sugar or honey in it. High heat tends to make the marinaded skin char easily. That’s why I went into making these roasted honey chicken wings with a little bit of worry. Well, whew, they came out great! Oh yeah, a little longer in the oven would’ve been bad news, but the cook time was spot-on. I ended up with super-tasty wings that were cooked just right. No char flavor at all, just yumminess! Lightly sweet, with a Asian-inspired taste, these are really great baked wings.

Roasted Honey Chicken Wings

Turn Once And Enjoy

The process for making these roasted honey chicken wings is pretty straightforward. Make marinade. Add the wings. Go do something for 3 hours. Come back. Put the wings in the oven. Flip the wings once while cooking. Eat. Seriously, how much easier can you get?

I used a silicone mat on a baking sheet when I made these wings. The nice thing about it is that it saves me a few cents on foil. The downside is there is a little cleanup involved. Foil works just fine and honestly, I’m leaning towards using that the next time. You could use parchment paper instead if you want.

Crispy and Juicy Oven-Baked Chicken Wings

According to my calculations, these crispy and juicy oven-baked chicken wings were 16.8 times better than I’d ever expected. Or hoped for. I could not get over how much I loved these wings. That’s saying a lot because I’m not always a baked wing fan. Well, out the window goes that thought because these wings were flavorful, lightly crispy, and just flat-out great.

Crispy and Juicy Oven-Baked Chicken Wings

Saucy. Or Not…

I tossed my crispy and juicy oven-baked chicken wings in a little bit of bottled Buffalo wing sauce before serving. I used very little sauce. The flavor on the wings is so great that I didn’t want to bury them. I could’ve easily just served them right out of the oven, sans sauce as we say. These wings would be perfect for a party. Easy to make, and delicious. And, by using different sauces, you can satisfy anyone’s tastes.

These are some great baked wings.

Baked Maple Wings

These baked maple wings are a fantastic wing for a party. Any party. Or the big game. They are easy to make and come out tasting absolutely fantastic. If you make the recipe as stated the wings are slightly sweet, with a slight hint of spiciness. They are impossible to stop eating. The skin doesn’t get crunchy but it has a nice bite to it. Not ‘weird’ like some baked wings can get.

Baked Maple Wings

Make It Several Ways

The beauty of the recipe for these baked maple wings is that you can make a minor change or two and have slightly different wings. That’s what makes these so great for a party. You can make several batches at once, letting your guests decide what variation they prefer.

For a spicy version add more pepper flake or add some hot sauce. For a more Buffalo-inspired version, add a cup of Buffalo sauce. The sauce recipe is very flexible.

Twist And Turn

As easy as these wings are to make, make sure you don’t ignore the instructions to turn them every 20 minutes during the first part of the cook. During the second part, where you’re cooking them using higher heat, definitely don’t ignore the wings for long. They’ll get golden brown quick. A little color is great. But don’t burn them!

Baked Spicy Buffalo Ranch Wings

The problem with most baked Buffalo-style wings is that the flavor is only skin-deep. The wings are cooked then tossed in a sauce then served. Problem is, that sauce never gets a chance to flavor the meat. You take a bite. Yummy. Take another. Sadness. Nada. Nothing. The sauce is gone and so is the flavor. These baked spicy Buffalo Ranch wings are not those wings. These wings are marinated in Buffalo sauce. That sauce gets ‘down in there’, flavoring the wings all the way through. The result is bite after bite of Buffalo wing goodness.

The Easy Way To Please A Crowd

You can easily scale this recipe for baked spicy Buffalo Ranch wings to feed a bigger crowd. For those that want even more heat, use a hotter hot sauce. Of course you can use a tamer sauce for those that don’t like that spicy kick.

These wings have a skin that is ‘bite through clean’. No yucky chewy chicken skin here. They aren’t going to be crunchy, but you can give them a little bit of a crunch and color by placing them under the broiler just before serving them. Just don’t leave them under that high heat for long.

Baked Garlic and Onion Wings

If you want to make your belly happy and as a bonus make your house smell amazing, make yourself a batch of these baked garlic and onion wings. Lots of garlic. Lots of onion. Heck, I’m not always a fan of baked wings but these made a believer out of me. They’re very flavorful. They’re cooked perfectly. Nice and tasty, I’d make these again.

Baked Garlic and Onion Wings

Leave ’em alone

I do have one suggestion when you make your baked garlic and onion wings. Don’t flip them while they are baking. Just let them be. You turn them and they’ll lose a bit of that flavor. Not much, not enough to really notice, but you’ll see it. Heck, you can see it my picture. Believe me, they were still great, but if I learned something from a recipe, I’ll pass it along!

Crispy Baked Honey BBQ Wings

These crispy baked honey BBQ wings made a believer of baked wings out of me. I rarely make wings in the oven. Or rather, I used to rarely make wings in the oven. These wings were delicious. They were cooked just right. The skin had the perfect bite. Man, there’s just nothing worse than rubbery wing skin. Not a worry here, that’s for sure. And the sauce? Oh me, what a great combination of sweetness, smokiness and just a bit of heat.

A Real Crowd Pleaser

This recipe for crispy baked honey BBQ wings scales really easily. So if you need to make a bunch of wings for a bunch of people, all you gotta do is double it or triple it or more. The sauce is also great on the sauce for dipping the cooked wings, so make extra. It’s really good stuff, and people are likely to want more of it. I did.

I used Sweet Baby Ray’s for the barbecue sauce in the sauce mix, but you can use your favorite. Since you’re adding honey and a little heat, I’d opt for a more traditional BBQ sauce versus a sweet heat version.

Instructions

For the wings

  • Preheat oven to 425 F.
  • Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with non-stick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, chili powder and black pepper.
  • Add the wings to the bowl (working in batches if needed) and toss to coat well. Transfer the wings to the baking sheet. Do not overlap the wings or let them touch.
  • Spray the tops of the wings with a little non-stick spray. This is optional but I think it gets the wings a bit more crispy.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the wings and bake another 20 minutes.
  • Brush the tops of the wings with half of the wing sauce. Bake another 5 minutes.
  • Flip the wings and brush with the remaining sauce. Bake another 5 minutes.
  • Optional: If you want a little more color to your wings, place under the boiler for 3-5 minutes. Keep an eye on them, though. You do not want to burn the sauce.

For the sauce

  • Meanwhile, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and then reduce the heat to keep warm until the wings are done, stirring often.

Notes

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce on the side, if desired.

Crispy Baked Wings

Ahhhhhh. Yes. These crispy baked wings are my kind of wings. Baked wings didn’t used to be my kind of wings. Not until this technique came along. Before this, I didn’t like the soft skin. The dried out meat. Nothing but wing sadness. Well, I’m not sad any more! Just a little seasoning and time in the oven and I’ve got nicely crisped-up wings. Grab some of my favorite sauce and I’m good-to-go!

It’s Party Time!

You can make a big ole batch of crispy baked wings in no time. Or you can make a personal-sized batch. Whichever you prefer, it’s easy no matter how many you make. This is the perfect recipe for a crowd. While the wings are cooking to perfection grab (or make!) a few different flavors of sauces and make a wing bar!

The One Key To Success

As simple as they are to make, these wings do require that you do one thing right when you are preparing them and that’s make sure they are dry before adding the baking powder and pepper mixture. If you see the baking powder making a dough-like puddle at the bottom of your bowl you do not have the wings dry enough. Take the time to make sure you get them dry. The wings will get crispier and taste better if you do!

Crispy Convection Oven Wings

Most of the time I make wings either on a charcoal grill using the Vortex insert, on my Char-Broil Big Easy, in an air fryer, or I deep fry them. But sometimes none of those options are available. That’s when I ‘fire up’ my convection oven. And you know, the wings are actually pretty darned good! Nothing will ever match deep frying wings in oil, but this is close enough when a deep fryer isn’t available. These crispy convection oven wings satisfy my wing craving just fine, thank you!

Crispy Convection Oven Wings

No Sad Wings!

When your crispy convection oven wings are done, don’t make them sad by adding cold wing sauce right out of the fridge! That cold sauce will kill some of that crispiness that you had, and it’ll make your wings mighty darned cold! So if you’re using leftover, refrigerated sauce, warm it up while the wings are cooking. Then sauce those little beauties right out of the oven!

Oven-Baked Buffalo Wings

I didn’t go into making these oven-baked Buffalo wings with the highest level of optimism. I’m not usually a fan of baked wings. It’s really a texture thing for me. They get dried out. Or the skin isn’t quite like I like. Maybe I’m too picky. Well, even picky me really liked these wings. You can’t beat them for crispy skin, moist meat and great flavor. And boy, talk about a great way to make a big batch of wings with just a bit of effort! These are great for the big game or your next party. Or just sitting on the sofa and eating a big ole batch of wings by yourself.

Oven-Baked Buffalo Wings

A Great Sauce

The sauce for these oven-baked Buffalo wings is pretty much your standard Buffalo sauce. Usually you’ll find honey or brown sugar being used to sweeten the sauce. This one uses molasses. It’s what really makes this sauce great. Any time a recipe calls for something to make it sweet, consider molasses. It adds more than just sweet, it adds flavor.

A Few Key Notes

To help these wings come out perfectly each and every time, I’ve found two things are key. First, make sure your wings are dry before adding the baking powder mixture. I don’t mean sorta dry. I mean dry dry. If you start adding the baking powder and you get a dough-like mix, your wings aren’t dry enough.

Next, make sure you get a nice even coating of the non-stick spray onto the foil. Don’t go crazy with it. Don’t create an oil slick. Just get it nice and even. I’ve not had a single wing stick with this approach. No one wants to serve wings that have been torn to bits by struggling to get them un-stuck from the foil.

Baked Maple Glazed Wings

I admit it, I do sometimes dream of deep-fried chicken wings. I don’t dream about baked chicken wings. Or I didn’t until I made these baked maple glazed wings. I didn’t think the flavors of the simple seasoning and the easy glaze would work. I didn’t think I’d like them. In reality, I didn’t like them. I loved them. These are some of the tastiest wings I’ve had. I’ll make these again and again.

Baked Maple Glazed Wings

Flavor Galore

These baked maple glazed wings would be perfect for a party. You could make a big batch. They aren’t spicy, so they won’t scare off anyone. They’re lightly sweet. And they’re different. The oregano and nutmeg make for a fantastic marriage with the reduced balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. Honestly, I would make a double batch of the sauce. What’s the worst thing that can happen? That you’ll have some leftover for another batch of wings?!??!
