  • Pat the chicken wings dry using paper towels. Place them in a large bowl or plastic bag for easy mixing.

Coating the Wings

  • Add the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the chicken. Mix well until each wing is thoroughly coated with the dry ingredients.

Baking the Wings

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes, carefully flip the wings over. Spritz them again with cooking oil and return to the oven for another 10 minutes until they are crispy and golden.

Making the Sauce

  • While the wings bake, heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add honey, minced garlic, smoked paprika, minced ginger, and soy sauce.
  • Cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens, adjusting seasoning as necessary.

Serving

  • Once the wings are finished baking, remove them from the oven. Drizzle the thickened honey garlic sauce over the wings and toss to coat evenly. Serve hot.

Pro Tips: Coat wings generously for maximum flavor and crispiness. Bake on parchment paper for easy cleanup. Adjust cooking time for ovens. Let wings rest after cooking to retain juiciness. Serve with creamy ranch or blue cheese dressing.
