Ingredients

  • to 4 pounds whole chicken wings
    3
  • packed brown sugar
    1 c
  • soy sauce
    ¾ c
  • teriyaki sauce
    ½ c
  • butter

    melted

    ½ c
  • creole seasoning
    1 tbsp
  • ground mustard
    1 tsp

Directions

  1. 1

    Cut the chicken wings into three sections. Discard the wing tips. Editor’s Tip: You may be able to find precut chicken wings, which are already separated into the tip, wingette and drumette sections. If not, you may be able to ask your butcher to do this step for you.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, butter, Creole seasoning and ground mustard. Add the chicken sections and toss to coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for eight hours or overnight.

  3. 3

    Drain the wings and discard any extra marinade. Arrange the chicken on a greased 13x9-inch baking dish and bake, uncovered, at 375°F until the chicken juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes.

  4. 4

    Transfer the wings to a rack on a broiler pan. Broil 4 inches from the heat until crisp, two to three minutes on each side. Editor’s Tip: Don't walk away during this step! Keep a close eye on the chicken wings as they broil to ensure they don't burn.

Sweet and Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken Tenders

Sweet and Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken Tenders

The tenders can be cooked by either baking or frying. Baking is healthier and frying is crispier. Since tossing the tenders in the sauce will reduce the crispiness a bit, we've written the recipe up with the baking instructions. For frying, cook the tenders in oil that is about 375°F for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Here's more detailed instructions on our sister site for fried chicken tenders.The garlic in the sauce comes from the chili garlic sauce. If you like it more garlicky, you can always add more some crushed/minced garlic or garlic powder to the tenders when seasoning them, or to the sauce.

About this Recipe

Ready to be the star of your next gathering? These irresistible Sticky Chicken Wings are your ticket to finger-licking bliss, promising a burst of sweet, savory flavor in every bite. They’re the ultimate party starter.

The magic of these wings lies in their perfectly balanced glaze, a harmonious blend of rich brown sugar, tangy teriyaki, savory soy sauce, and a hint of warmth from creole seasoning and ground mustard. This combination creates a deep, caramelized coating that clings to every juicy wing, transforming simple chicken into an unforgettable experience that's far more exciting than your average appetizer.

Prepare your taste buds for an explosion of flavor. You'll savor the sweet stickiness of the glaze, perfectly complemented by the umami depth of soy and teriyaki, all underscored by a subtle, aromatic spice. Each bite delivers tender, succulent chicken coated in a shiny, addictive sauce that begs to be licked off your fingers. The preparation is straightforward, requiring just 10 minutes of hands-on time before a leisurely 50-minute cook transforms them into golden, glazed perfection.

While delicious as is, you can subtly adjust the flavor profile to suit your preference. For a richer, more robust savory note, consider slightly increasing the amount of soy sauce. If you prefer a milder sweetness, you can gently dial back the brown sugar to achieve your desired balance.

These Sticky Chicken Wings are absolutely ideal for any social occasion, from casual game nights to festive holiday gatherings. Serve them piled high on a platter, perhaps alongside some crisp celery sticks or a cool, creamy dip to balance the richness. They're designed to be passed around and devoured, sparking conversations and satisfied smiles.
