Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with foil. Toss 2 pounds of chicken wings with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika in a large bowl until evenly coated.
- Step 2: Arrange wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skin is crisp and golden.
- Step 3: While the wings bake, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce in a small bowl until smooth.
- Step 4: When wings are done, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the spicy honey glaze over them. Toss gently to coat each wing fully.
- Step 5: Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro and serve immediately for a vibrant, sweet-spicy kick.
