Honey Mustard Wings

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 1 hour
Makes 4 to 6 servings (about 20 wings)

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings split into flats and drumettes
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder not baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup whole grain Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Chopped fresh parsley for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F, line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, and set a wire rack inside it.
  • Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels.
  • Toss the wings with the baking powder, kosher salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the wings skin side up on the rack in a single layer with space between each piece.
  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping once at the 20 minute mark, until the skin is deep golden and a thermometer reads 165°F.
  • While the wings bake, warm the honey, mustard, and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan over low heat for 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and whisk in the mayonnaise until smooth (off the heat keeps it from splitting).
  • Let the baked wings rest for 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the wings to a large bowl, pour over the sauce, and toss until coated.
  • Pile onto a platter, scatter with chopped parsley, and serve right away.
