Whether its game time or just a regular weekday, crispy crunchy melt in your mouth chicken wings are always a hit. These easy crunchy chicken wings have a teriyaki flare and a crunchy breading. The meat practically falls off the bone and fills your palate with flavor and texture. The sauce can be tossed in with the wings to coat them all over or be used as a dip. My least favorite thing about fried foods is dealing with the messy oil that has splattered all over my kitchen. These wings are oven baked so no messy oil.
These wings are wonderful served with rice and vegetables for a complete dinner.
The honey for the sauce can be substituted for brown sugar for a more affordable alternative.
The sauce is not an exact science and can be altered according to your taste buds. If you like spicy food, I recommend adding chili flakes or cayenne pepper to it as well.
All chicken should be cooked completely before consuming. 45 minutes seems like a long time for such a small portion of meat but trust me it really does take 45 minutes to cook these all the way.
