Honey Sriracha Wings Recipe

No napkins necessary when you serve these Sriracha Honey Bourbon Chicken Wings because you are going to lick your fingers clean!

Whether it be tailgating, a BBQ, or just a regular Tuesday night chicken wings are always a hit. I admit that I prefer the “flats” instead of the “drums” because I like the skin on the flats when it gets extra crispy.

When I order chicken wings at a restaurant, I always tell them to fry them a little longer because I want them extra crispy.

You won’t have a flavor problem with these wings and by baking them you can get them as crispy as you like and the extra basting of sauce ensures that they are packed with flavor!

How to Make Sriracha Honey Wings

First: Preheat oven to 400F. Mix together the honey, Sriracha, and bourbon in a small bowl.

Second: Brush chicken wings with 1/3 the sriracha mixture.

Third: Place on baking sheet and cook for 50 minutes or until cooked through, brushing with 1/3 of the sriracha mixture halfway through. I like my chicken wings crispy so I tend to cook mine a little longer.

Fourth: When wings are finished cooking, remove them from the oven and brush with the remaining 1/3 of the sriracha mixture. Serve hot!

Tapas Tips & Tricks

  • My favorite tools for making chicken wings, be it on the grill or in the oven, are an aluminum baking sheet,
  • Cooking rack, and a
  • Pastry brush for getting the yummy sauce into all the nooks and crannies of the chicken wings.
  • Now, I prefer the brushes with the natural bristles but they are harder to clean so if you like a silicone one here is the link for that.
