Notes

Helpful tips

      • I buy my chicken wings in Whole Foods. The quality is always consistent and the meat tastes so fresh.
      • After you unwrap the wings, pat dry with paper towels.
      • You will not be adding any salt because the soy sauce is salty enough.
      • You will need to stand at the oven when you broil the wings because if you don't check it as it's broiling, the honey has a tendency to blacken.
      • The honey I'm using is thick and unfiltered, so I've been heating the honey and soy together. I suggest you do too. You just heat the sauce long enough to melt the honey.
      • I use soy sauce but I've also used coconut aminos and it works wonderfully.
      • I also used normal soy sauce but you can also use a light soy sauce - with low sodium.
      • Although this recipe would work in an air fryer, I choose to bake it because of the amount of wings I cook. Air frying would require multiple batches.
      • If you have leftovers, place the wings in an airtight container and store for up to a week in the refrigerator.
