Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
To season wings:
- 1 lb of chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chicken seasoning or poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chipotle powder or cajun seasoning
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp Heinz 57 sauce
- Kosher Salt and pepper to taste
For Sauce
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp Franks Red Hot or your favorite hot sauce
- 1/3 cup of chicken stock to loosen sauce as needed I like my sauce to be more of a glaze
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help crisp up the chicken wings.
- Wash and pat dry the chicken wings. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Drizzle olive oil over the wings and sprinkle with seasonings listed plus Worcestershire sauce and Heinz 57
- Place the seasoned wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a wire rack. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
- While the wings are baking, it's time to prepare the flavorful sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, hot sauce, barbecue sauce, honey, and sweet chili sauce. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally until the sauce is well combined and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken stock as needed to make the consistency looser. Remove from heat.
- Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven. Place the baked wings in a large mixing bowl and pour the hot honey sweet chili BBQ sauce over them. Toss the wings gently to coat them evenly with the sauce.
- Return the sauced wings to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes. This step allows the sauce to caramelize and adhere to the wings, creating that irresistible glaze.
- Transfer the hot honey sweet chili BBQ wings to a serving platter and enjoy!
