Ingredients

For the Chicken Wings:

  • 2 lbs chicken wings (tip: separate the flats and drumettes for easier eating)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for extra flavor)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for dredging)
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch (for extra crispiness)
  • Vegetable oil for frying (or you can bake the wings)

For the Honey Lemon Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about one lemon)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (optional for a slight tang)
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional, for added citrus flavor)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Wings

  1. Dry the Wings: Start by patting the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step is key to achieving crispy wings. Excess moisture will make the wings soggy during frying.
  2. Season the Wings: In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Make sure the wings are evenly coated in the seasonings.
  3. Coat the Wings: In a separate shallow dish, mix the flour and cornstarch. Dredge each chicken wing in the flour-cornstarch mixture, ensuring that the wings are coated evenly. The cornstarch is what will give the wings that irresistible crispy exterior.
