Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings

Instructions

1. Prepare the wings
   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss the wings with vegetable oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
2. Bake the wings
   Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the rack. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown, turning halfway through cooking time.
3. Make the honey sriracha sauce
   While the wings are baking, combine sriracha, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and lime juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter until melted and sauce is glossy.
4. Glaze the wings
   When the wings are done, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour two-thirds of the sauce over the hot wings and toss until evenly coated. Reserve the remaining sauce for serving.
5. Broil for extra crispiness
   For extra caramelization, place the glazed wings back on the wire rack and broil on high for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning. The sauce should bubble and caramelize slightly.
6. Serve and garnish
   Transfer the wings to a serving platter. Drizzle with the remaining sauce, then sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately while hot and sticky.
