  • 1 tablespoon Tapioca Flour Arrowroot Starch, or Corn Starch
  • 1/2 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
For Garnishing
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds optional

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • saucepan
  • Tongs
  • bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 F.
  2. Dry the chicken wings thoroughly with a paper towel. This step is crucial for achieving crispy wings.
  3. In a bowl, combine the dried chicken wings with flour, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss each wing until it is fully coated in the flour mixture.
  4. Transfer the coated wings to a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. You may need multiple baking sheets depending on the size of your wings.
  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 are baking, prepare the sauce. Combine all sauce ingredients in a small saucepan.
  7. Heat the sauce mixture over medium heat, stirring for 6-7 minutes until it thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
  8. After the wings have baked for 20 minutes, 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 prepared sauce over the wings and toss with tongs or hands to coat evenly.
  11. Top with sesame seeds if desired, then serve.

Notes

For extra crispy skin, ensure the wings are completely dry before coating them in flour. You can also use a wire rack set inside the baking sheet to allow air to circulate around the wings during baking.
