Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound bone-in, skin-on chicken wing portions
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons herbes de Provence
  • 1 teaspoon roasted garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/4 stick)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
  • 1/2 cup mild honey (such as clover or wildflower)
  • Chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, basil, rosemary, chives)

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk
  • Basting brush
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to achieve a crispy outer layer.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons of herbes de Provence, roasted garlic powder, and kosher salt. Toss until evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  4. Step 4: Bake wings for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Step 5: Melt unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in honey and 1 teaspoon of herbes de Provence.
  6. Step 6: Brush the garlic glaze generously over the wings once they are done baking.
  7. Step 7: Return glazed wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes for the glaze to caramelize.
  8. Step 8: Let wings cool for a few minutes, then garnish with chopped fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, ensure wings are not overcrowded on the baking sheet.
  • Use fresh garlic for a stronger flavor instead of garlic powder.
  • Store cooled wings in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
