What is the secret to the best chicken wings?

The secret to making the best chicken wings is all in the preparation. Make sure to pat your wings dry before baking them and use baking powder to help create extra crispy skin. Don't overcrowd your pan when baking to prevent steam from forming and keep your wings nice and crispy. Finally, toss the crispy wings in the sauce during the last few minutes for maximum flavor.

What is honey garlic sauce made of?

My homemade honey garlic sauce is a combination of honey, garlic, butter, chilis, and cornstarch. The sweetness of the honey pairs perfectly with the savory flavors of the garlic to create a sticky, thick sauce to coat the delicious wings. Some recipes also include soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar.
