Sriracha Chicken Wings are a treat I adore. This Thai recipe is hot, sweet and very very tasty. I serve these as a main dish, a side dish and as a snack. The recipe states bake but they work wonders on the BBQ. Baking them in a dry powder mix gives them a deep fried texture without all the oil.

Ingredients
- 1 kg chicken wings
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- ¼ tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1/3 cup runny honey
- 1/3 cup sriracha hot sauce
- 2 tsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Place a large sided baking tray on a flat surface and line with tin foil including slightly over the sides. Place a wire rack on top of the foil. This will save the baking tray and a lot of washing up.
- Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas Mark 7.
- Using a small mixing bowl, combine the paprika, salt, pepper and baking powder and stir well.1 tsp smoked paprika, 2 tbsp baking powder, 1 ½ tsp salt, 1 tsp ground black pepper
- Place the wings into a large mixing bowl or I use a large roasting tray. Add most of the paprika mixture over the chicken wings and using your hands, rub the powder into the wings. Add the last part of powder and repeat so that all of the wings are totally covered.1 kg chicken wings
- Remove the wings from the mixing bowl and place on the wire rack in one layer.
- Place the wings into the oven for 20 minutes. Remove and turn the wings over and bake for another 20 minutes.
- While they are cooking, its time to make the glaze. Add the rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil and sriracha to a small bowl and whisk thoroughly.¼ tsp toasted sesame oil, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1/3 cup runny honey, 1/3 cup sriracha hot sauce
- Finally, turn them the wings over once more and bake until they are lovely and golden brown. Normally about 15 minutes.
- When cooked, remove from the oven and place in a warmed serving bowl. Drizzle with the sauce and a light sprinkle of sesame seeds and serve immediately.2 tsp sesame seeds
- Don’t forget the napkins, you will need them.
