Ingredients
For the Wings:
- 2 lbs chicken wings (drums & flats)
- 1 tbsp baking powder (for extra crispiness)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
For the Muria Pepper No. 1 Glaze:
- ½ cup Muria Pepper No. 1 Preserve
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter (for extra silkiness)
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (for balance)
- ½ tsp crushed red pepper (optional, for extra heat)
- 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Chopped scallions or cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Prep & Bake the Wings
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
- In a large bowl, toss the wings with baking powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and olive oil until evenly coated.
- Arrange the wings skin-side up on the rack, making sure they don’t touch.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
2. Make the Sticky Glaze
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine Muria Pepper No. 1, soy sauce, honey, butter, and apple cider vinegar.
- Stir continuously until the mixture bubbles and thickens into a glossy, sticky glaze (about 3-4 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in crushed red pepper (optional) for extra heat.
3. Coat & Serve
- Transfer crispy wings to a large mixing bowl. Pour the warm, thick glaze over the wings.
- Toss until each wing is fully coated in that deep, glossy, peppery glaze.
- Plate and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and fresh scallions or cilantro.
- Serve immediately—and prepare for the compliments.
Pro Tip:
For extra caramelization, after tossing the wings in the glaze, place them back under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until slightly charred and sticky.
