These chicken wings are a fan favorite because not only are the sriracha spicy, but they're New England sweet too, thanks to the maple syrup. Amy Traverso, who's the Senior Food Editor with Yankee Magazine, stopped by Tonia's Kitchen to talk about her recipe for Maple Glazed Sriracha Glazed Wings. Amy tells Tonia the three primary ingredients for the glaze here are Sriracha and Maple Syrup (of course!) combined with soy sauce. Make the glaze and toss those wings for a sweet, smokey spicy take on a classic cozy snacking food you'll love!
For the Chicken
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 pounds chicken wings and drumettes, patted dry
- Chopped cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the wings: In a small bowl, stir together the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In a large bowl, toss the chicken with this spice mixture. Refrigerate for 30 minutes and up to 24 hours (cover bowl if refrigerating for more than 30 minutes).Preheat oven to 425 °F and set a rack to the upper-third position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Set aside and make the glaze.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Set on the upper third rack and bake for 30 minutes, turning halfway through. After 30 minutes, brush the top of the wings with the glaze. Return to oven for 7 minutes. Now turn the wings over and brush the other side with the glaze. Return to oven and cook until nicely browned, 5 to 7 more minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve hot.
