Ingredients
Chicken wings

Garlic powder
Salt and pepper
Soy sauce
Honey
Fresh ginger
Garlic
Smoked paprika
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven or air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
-
Pat the chicken wings dry and place them in a bowl or plastic bag.
-
Add flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the wings and toss to coat evenly.
-
For oven baking: Place the wings on a baking rack and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
-
For air frying: Place the wings in the air fryer basket and cook for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
-
While the wings cook, prepare the honey garlic sauce. In a saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, garlic, and smoked paprika. Heat over medium-high heat until it simmers, then reduce to low and stir occasionally until thickened.
-
Once the wings are done, toss them in the honey garlic sauce and serve.
Notes
-
For spicy honey garlic wings, add red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to the sauce.
-
Skip the breading for naked wings (low-carb or keto-friendly).
-
For extra crispy wings, double fry them for a crunchier texture.
