These spicy, yet slightly sweet and tangy are a must try for anyone who loves sriracha sauce.

They are quite simple to make and don’t require a deep fryer. I bake them most of the time, but they do turn out great in an air fryer if you have that option.

First toss your wings in some vegetable or canola oil, sea salt, and black pepper. You can do this in a bowl or in a closable bag. It can be done the day before or right before you are ready to bake them.

Then lay them out flat on a parchment-lined sheet tray.

Silicone baking mats work great, but for things that are going to produce some liquid, like grease, I use parchment paper to keep it from oozing onto my pan.

I happened to be making my Firecracker Wings at the same time so I used the same sheet tray.

In a 400 degree oven, bake the wings for 30 minutes. Flip them over and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes or until they are crispy.

If you have an air fryer, cook at 400 degrees for 12 minutes, flip them over and cook at 400 degrees for another 8 to 12 minutes, until crispy.

While your wings are cooking, put the orange juice, honey, and sriracha in a sauce pan and bring to a simmer. Mix your cornstarch with the water and whisk into sauce. Simmer until thickened. (Sorry, no fun pictures for this step.)

When the wings are crispy, toss in the sauce or put wings on a plate and pour sauce over the top. Sprinkle some chives or green onions on top.

Enjoy!

Sweet Orange Sriracha Glazed Wings

I love wings of all kinds and they are very easy to make at home without a deep fat fryer, and a tad healthier too. The sweetness of the honey and tanginess of the orange juice pairs well with the spicy sriracha sauce.

Equipment

Sheet tray lined with parchment paper
Sauce pan and whisk

Ingredients

12 each wings and/or drummies
2 tbsp vegetable oil
½ tsp sea salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 cup OJ I prefer freshly squeezed oranges
1/3 cup honey
1 - 3 tbsp Sriracha*
1 ½ tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp cold water

Instructions

Toss wings in the oil, sea salt and black pepper. Lay flat on a parchment lined sheet pan and bake at 400° oven for 30 minutes. Flip over and bake another 15 – 20 minutes until crispy.
While baking, combine the OJ, honey and Sriracha in a sauce pan and melt the honey. Thoroughly mix the arrowroot or cornstarch in the water. While whisking the OJ sauce, slowly drizzle the cornstarch water into the sauce. Simmer until thickened.
When the wings are crispy, remove from oven and add them to the sauce. Toss well. Garnish with some sliced green onion and/or some orange zest.
Enjoy!

Notes

*If you don’t like a lot of spiciness, reduce the amount of Sriracha to 1 or 2 tablespoons. You can start with 1 and taste, add more until it is hot enough for your tastes.

If you have an air fryer and want to use it instead of the oven, put your wings in at 400 degrees, cook for 12 minutes. Flip them over and cook at 400 degrees for another 8 to 12 minutes - it all depends on how big are your wings and drummies.
