Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt & pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F or grill to medium-high.
  2. Pat wings dry, toss with oil, salt, and pepper (plus a little baking powder if you want them extra crispy).
  3. Bake 40–45 mins or grill 20–25 mins until crispy and 165°F inside.
  4. Simmer BBQ sauce, honey, chipotle, and spices for 5–7 mins until glossy.
  5. Toss wings in sauce and serve hot.

Notes

  • Double bake/grill after saucing for crispy-sticky perfection.
  • Adjust chipotle for heat preference.
  • Always sauce after cooking, never before.
  • Double the sauce if you want extra for dipping.
