This baked spicy honey BBQ wings recipe is easy to make with simple ingredients. They are crispy and sticky and great as a party or game day appetizer.
Wash and pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels.
In a mixing bowl, add the chicken wings, salt, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, crushed red chilies. Mix together until wings are fully coated.
Place the wings on a baking tray lined with foil paper and sprayed generously with cooking oil.
Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes, turning once at midpoint.
While the wings are baking, prepare the sauce by mixing together bbq sauce, honey, ketchup, hot sauce/Sriracha sauce, butter and garlic powder in a mixing bowl.
When the wings are fully baked, remove tray from oven.
Dip each wing in this sauce until fully coated and place on the baking tray again.
Bake at 375 degrees for an additional 5-10 minutes until the sauce starts bubbling.
Brush more leftover sauce on the wings and sprinkle crushed red chilies.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Read my tips above. - These wings taste the best when they are fresh but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day and reheated in the oven or microwave. They won't taste as great as they did on the first day.
