Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 250°F and line a baking sheet with a wire rack. Pat dry 2 lbs chicken wings and toss with 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp baking powder until evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Place wings on the wire rack and bake for 30 minutes to dry the skin, then increase oven temperature to 425°F and bake for an additional 40 minutes until skin is crisp and golden.
  3. Step 3: While wings bake, combine 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium-low heat for 5 minutes until thickened and glossy.
  4. Step 4: Remove wings from oven and toss immediately with the warm sweet chili glaze until fully coated.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle 1 tbsp sesame seeds and 2 tbsp sliced green onions on top before serving.
