    Honey sriracha wings

    Now is the perfect time to start sharing my summer go-to chicken wings recipes with you. I see you are loving the salt and pepper chicken and garlic chicken thigh recipe I shared recently.

    Thank you so, this little girl appreciates your comments and readership.

    I need to clear the air, honey sriracha wings recipe is not just for summer, it is perfect all year round just as I mentioned above. I just like making mine on a Friday 😊 and I particularly enjoy it with hot homemade chips.

    You would catch me mopping the chips with the honey sriracha sauce. It is finger lincking good and I am actually drooling writing this. This is a great chicken wings recipe!

    Honey sriracha chicken wings recipe demystified

    When I cook chicken wings, I prefer to bake them except when I am pressed for time or making salt and pepper chicken wing. That is one wing recipe I am partial about, it should be fried and not baked.

    moving on swiftly, today's wing recipe is baked but it is crispy, yes CRISPY! Thanks to baking powder (not baking soda please) and baking rack. I won’t go into the science of why baking powder makes chicken wings crispy as I plan to make a post on it separately.

    That said, if you have an air fryer, you can use it to achieve the type of crispiness this recipe calls for. If you would rather fry this recipe, then swap the baking powder for 2 tablespoons of cornflour.

    What I can tell you today is if you followed this recipe to the T, you won’t regret it. Sounds patronising but it is the truth. I love making honey sriracha wings as it only requires a handful of ingredients (as with most of my recipes)

    I would also like to say you should not let the name sriracha honey wings scare you, it is actually not that hot or should I say spicy.

    The honey and the vinegar added to the sriracha balances the heat and that is why this recipe is so good. It is safe for kids too because it falls on the mild scale side of hot sauce.

    Are you ready to cook with me? Right let’s do this

    How to make the best honey sriracha chicken wings

    Prep the chicken wings: make sure you bring the chicken wing to room temperature before baking. Pat the wings dry with kitchen towel so that it is moist free.

    Preheat the oven at 160C/320F and line a baking tray with an aluminium foil, then place a baking rack on it.

    To a small bowl, add smoked paprika, garlic powder, ginger powder, onion powder, baking powder, salt, ground black pepper and mix to combine.

    Bring out the wings from the oven one last time, flip sides again and return to the oven and continue to bake for 10 minutes on 180C/365F.

    You might be wondering what is the difference between honey sriracha sauce and sriracha buffalo sauce?

    This is the simple analogy below

    Honey + sriracha = honey Sriracha sauce

    Sriracha + melted butter = sriracha buffalo sauce. Hot sauce like frank hot sauce is the original recipe used in making buffalo sauce.

    How to serve this recipe

    Honey sriracha is perfect on its own as an appetiser or side dish. I love to serve mine with homemade chips, plain basmati rice or with this vegetable fried rice.

    How to store honey sriracha chicken wings

    The simple honest answer is no, don’t do it. Although, you can make the chicken wings ahead and reheat as at when needed then coat with the sauce.

    That tastes a lot better than storing already coated wings. I would be surprised if you had any leftovers from this.
