Ingredients

– ¼ cup soy sauce

Instructions
Creating Honey Glazed Chicken Wings can be simple if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
2. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, and black pepper. Mix well.
3. Marinate Wings: Place the chicken wings in a large zip-top bag or bowl. Pour the marinade over the wings, ensuring they are well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or longer for more flavor.
4. Arrange Wings: After marinating, remove the wings from the marinade and arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Turn the wings halfway through for even cooking.
6. Glaze: Meanwhile, pour the remaining marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
7. Coat Wings: After baking for 25 minutes, remove the wings from the oven. Brush the thickened glaze over the wings generously.
8. Final Bake: Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, allowing the glaze to caramelize and become sticky.
9. Serve: Once fully cooked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired.
By following these steps, you’ll create honey glazed chicken wings that are not only delicious but also visually appealing.
