Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 F.
  2. Dry the chicken wings very well with a paper towel. This step is key to making them crispy.
  3. Add the dried wings to a bowl with the flour, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss each wing until fully coated in the flour mixture.
  4. Transfer the coated wings to a foil or parchment paper lined baking sheet. You can layer foil and parchment paper for easier cleanup. You might need multiple baking sheets depending on wing size.
  5. Spray the wings with oil and bake for 30 minutes. Flip the wings and bake for an additional 20 minutes.
  6. While the wings bake, prepare the sauce. Add all sauce ingredients to a small saucepan or pot.
  7. Heat the sauce mixture over medium heat, stirring for 6-7 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
  8. After the wings have baked for 50 minutes total, turn the broiler on for 2 minutes to achieve a brown color. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  9. Remove the wings from the oven.
  10. Pour the sauce over the wings and use tongs to coat them evenly.
  11. Top with sesame seeds if desired, serve, and enjoy.
