  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

    2-3 pounds chicken wings
  • Bake for 40-50 minutes until the skin is crispy and the wings are cooked through.
  • While wings cook, combine orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, brown sugar, kosher salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium for 10 minutes to reduce by about half.
    1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice, 1 Tablespoon orange zest, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • In a small bowl, whisk cornstarch and cold water together to form a slurry. Add to sauce and stir to thicken slightly, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
    1 Tablespoon cornstarch, 1 Tablespoon cold water
  • Transfer the cooked chicken wings to a large bowl and add glaze. Toss to coat, then serve.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, you can double the amount of slurry mixture.
