Chicken wings get a Thai spin with a sweet and spicy sticky sauce. Bake them before adding the sauce for a crispy texture.
By Taylor Kadlec
These Thai flavored chicken wings are so good that I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to go back to regular chicken wings anytime soon. Unlike a lot of Thai dishes which have a lot of specialty ingredients, these wings have pretty standard items aside from the Thai Sweet Chili Sauce which can be found at pretty much any grocery store. Along with the sweet chili sauce, all these wings need are honey for it’s sticky sweetness, soy sauce, lime juice, Sriracha for some heat, a little garlic, and green onions and cilantro to top it all off.
Along with a pretty simple ingredient list, these wings are super simple to whip up, too. The wings get baked sans sauce to begin with, and then finish cooking with the sauce, so it gets all warm and sticky up on the wings. I also made sure to turn the broiler on for a minute so they’d get nice and crispy on the outside. Mmmm so good.
