Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a roasting rack on top. Cover the rack with another sheet of foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Use a knife to poke holes all over the foil.

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.

Place the barbecue sauce and honey in a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine.

Transfer the chicken wings to the mixing bowl. Toss to evenly coat in sauce.

Arrange the chicken wings on the foil-covered roasting rack. Spoon any remaining honey-barbecue sauce over the wings.

Bake the chicken wings on middle rack of oven until browned and crispy, 45-50 minutes.

Check to see that chicken wings are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the chicken wings to cool on roasting rack for 3 minutes. Plate and serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pat Wings Dry for Crispier Skin 🌫️
Pat chicken wings completely dry with paper towels before seasoning to remove surface moisture, allowing the skin to crisp up beautifully during baking instead of steaming.
Use a Wire Rack for Even Cooking 🔲
Place wings on a wire rack set over a baking sheet rather than directly on the pan to allow hot air to circulate underneath, ensuring crispy coating on all sides.
Apply Glaze in Two Stages ✨
Brush honey-BBQ glaze halfway through baking and again in the final 5 minutes to build layers of sticky coating without burning, preventing the sauce from caramelizing too quickly.
Mix Honey and BBQ Sauce Cold 🍯
Combine your honey and barbecue sauce together before baking rather than drizzling separately, allowing the flavors to meld and create a more cohesive, balanced glaze.
Increase Oven Temperature for Final Finish 🔥
Bump your oven to 425°F for the last 3-5 minutes after glazing to caramelize the honey and BBQ sauce, creating a glossy, lacquered exterior with deep color.
