Chicken wings ingredients

  • 4-6 pieces of chicken wings approximately 1-1/2 pounds

The cooking steps are-

  • At first, in a separate bowl, remove the chicken wings tip and cut them at the drumettes joints for baking later.
  • In a separate bowl, add the paprika, black pepper, garlic, and ginger powder with the baking powder. Whisk them to blend appropriately.
  • Once whisked correctly, sprinkle the baking powder mixture over the chicken wings. Some suggest adding little cooking oil to it.
  • Toss the wings to coat evenly on each side. The chicken wings idea for honey sriracha needs to have a proper coating to be baked evenly.
  • Set the oven temperature at 425°F to preheat it for 1-2 minutes. Now use aluminum foil and line it with the baking sheet. Finally, place the wire rack over the aligned foil.
  • Now place the chicken wings on the already prepared baking sheet in a single layer over the rack.
  • Bake the coated chicken wings for 50 minutes at least. You will have to flip over the wings a few times to make sure that all portions are appropriately baked.
  • Once you are satisfied with the wings' baking condition, remove them from the oven. Please keep them in a separate bowl.
  • In another bowl, add the sesame seed, rice vinegar, honey, and sriracha sauce. Whisk the mixture until it becomes smooth.
  • Now, pour the honey glaze over the baked wings to coat them entirely. Sprinkle the remaining sesame seeds over the honey-glazed coated chicken wings before serving.
