Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings, split into drumettes and flats
• 1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Honey Garlic Glaze

• 1/3 cup Mountainside Apiary Wildflower Crest Reserve Honey
• 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil, optional
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional

Garnish

• Chopped fresh parsley
• Sliced green onions
• Sesame seeds, optional

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly spray the rack with cooking oil.
2. Pat the chicken wings very dry with paper towels. Place them in a large bowl and toss with the baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
3. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared rack, leaving space between them.
4. Bake for 20 minutes, turn the wings, and continue baking for 20 to 25 minutes until deeply golden and crisp.
5. While the wings bake, combine the honey, garlic, soy sauce, butter, vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in a small saucepan.
6. Cook over medium-low heat for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the butter melts and the glaze thickens slightly.
7. Transfer the hot wings to a large bowl. Pour the warm glaze over them and toss until every wing is evenly coated.
8. Garnish with parsley, green onions, and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
