How to Make the Best Favorite Honey-Sriracha Chicken Wings

These honey-sriracha chicken wings are the perfect party appetizer that combines crispy, perfectly cooked chicken with a sweet and spicy sauce that guests absolutely love. The magic happens when ultra-crispy wings meet a tangy honey-sriracha BBQ glaze infused with garlic, fresh ginger, and a hint of fish sauce for depth.

What makes this recipe special is the technique—baking the wings low and slow first at 250°F to render out the fat, then cranking the heat to 425°F to achieve that coveted golden, crispy exterior. The baking powder plays a crucial role here, helping to dry out the skin for extra crispiness without deep-frying.

The honey-sriracha sauce is a perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory. The honey mellows out the heat from the sriracha while the apple cider vinegar adds brightness, and the fish sauce brings an umami richness that elevates the entire dish. Whether you’re hosting a game day gathering, a casual party, or just want to impress your family, these wings are guaranteed to disappear fast.

Ingredients

Honey-Sriracha BBQ Sauce

Chicken Wings

Instructions

Honey-Sriracha BBQ Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine ketchup, minced garlic, honey, apple cider vinegar, fish sauce, ginger, and sriracha.
  2. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently until all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

Chicken Wings

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F.
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, toss wings with salt and baking powder until evenly coated.
  4. Spread wings on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes at 250°F, then increase temperature to 425°F and bake for an additional 50 minutes until the wings are golden and crispy, stirring halfway through.
  6. Remove wings from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
  7. Transfer the cooked wings to a large bowl and pour the honey-sriracha sauce over them.
  8. Toss until wings are evenly coated with the sauce.
  9. Serve hot with ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and fresh vegetables on the side if desired.

Notes

  • For extra crispy wings, increase the final bake time by 10-15 minutes at 425°F.
  • If you prefer a milder heat level, reduce the sriracha to 1 teaspoon.
  • Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in a 350°F oven.
  • The honey-sriracha sauce can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
