Sriracha Chicken Wings
by Kirbie
Crispy wings, baked with a spicy sweet sticky glaze, these are the perfect party wings.
The sriracha sauce brings a lovely red hue to the wings. Sweet honey is added to the glaze to balance out the spice.
Like most of my other oven baked wing recipes, the prep work for these is relatively stress-free. The longest time you’ll spend is waiting for these to bake.
My brother and his girlfriend were visiting this weekend and hovering around me as I photographed these. Once I finished with my photos, these were completely devoured. I’ll definitely be making these again.
- 2 lbs chicken party wings
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley optional, for garnish
for the glaze
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2-3 tbsp sriracha sauce
- 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place wings on the sheet. Brush surface of wings with melted butter. Bake wings about 40-50 minutes or until the skin is thin and crispy (baking time will vary depending on the size of your party wings).
While the wings are baking, make the glaze on the stove. Add honey, sriracha, and soy sauce in a small saucepan and bring to a low boil. Add water and cornstarch to a small bowl and stir until cornstarch is dissolved. Pour into the glaze and stir at a low boil until sauce thickens.
When wings are crispy, remove from oven and brush tops with glaze, reserving half of the glaze for later. Place wings back in the oven and bake for about 5-7 minutes until wings turn a dark red and start to blister. Remove wings from oven. Brush on an additional layer of glaze and then serve. Garnish with parsley if desired.

The bf is obsessed with these sriracha honey chicken wings from True North in North Park. I’ve never made chicken wings at home before but I think I’ll have to try this recipe, they look super glazed/crspy on the outside!
def give it a try!
Kirbie – This sound wonderful! Do you think this glaze would be good on pork belly? I am currently obsessed!
Hmm, sounds like it would!
Oh my goodness – how did you not devour all of these immediately!?!?!
I held everyone off until I took the pictures. then they were gone almost immediately!
I made these two nights ago for my little brothers. We all fell in love with the sauce. Since then I’ve made chicken fingers fried, brushed then baked to make them nice and sticky. I also made a rack of oven baked ribs with the sauce. BEST SAUCE EVER.
Aw, that’s so great to hear! I’m so happy that you love the sauce. I love it too!
