Ingredients

For the wings:

2 pounds chicken wing sections fresh or frozen and thawed
1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cracked pepper
Parsley for garnish

For the honey mustard:

½ cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons honey alternative see notes
1 tablespoon white distilled vinegar
¼ teaspoon cracked pepper

Instructions

To make the wings:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place a wire rack over a sheet pan. Spray with nonstick spray.
Use paper towels to dry the chicken wings, removing as much liquid as possible for the most crispy wings.
Add the baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and pepper to a mixing bowl and stir well to combine.
Add the chicken wings to a large bowl and sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the top. Stir well to coat the chicken wings in the seasoning.
Arrange the chicken on the wire rack in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes. Flip and bake for another 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and skin is crispy.
Remove the wings from the oven and place in a large bowl with half of the honey mustard. Toss well to coat the wings. Return to the oven and bake for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve with leftover honey mustard for dipping.

To make the honey mustard:

Add all of the ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine.

Notes

Be sure to use aluminum free baking powder or your wings will have a metallic taste.

We’re using the oven to cook these wings, but you could also use the air fryer. Air fry at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.

The nutrition info is based on 2 pounds of wings serving 2 people - that'll be around 10 wings each. The nutrition info is also calculating all of the honey mustard being used, but you'll likely have quite a bit leftover to use for another purpose.

These are great with ranch for dipping, as well.
