• 3 lbs Chop Shop Grocer fresh chicken wings .
• 1 tbsp baking powder (not baking soda!)
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 tbsp sriracha (adjust for spice preference)
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds (for garnish)

• 2 scallions, thinly sliced (for garnish)

  

1. Prep the Wings for Maximum Crispiness
   • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels—removing moisture is key to crispy skin. Place wings in a large bowl.
   • In a small bowl, mix baking powder, kosher salt, smoked paprika, black pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
   • Arrange wings on a wire rack set over a foil-lined baking sheet, ensuring they don’t touch. Refrigerate uncovered for 1-2 hours (or overnight) to dry out the skin further. This step is The Chop Shop’s secret to next-level crunch!
2. Bake to Perfection
   • Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place the wings in the oven and bake for 25 minutes. Flip each wing and bake for another 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. (Pro tip: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F.)
3. Make the Glaze
   • While the wings bake, combine honey, soy sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Set aside to cool slightly.
4. Toss and Serve
   • Transfer hot wings to a large bowl. Pour the glaze over the wings and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions for a fresh, nutty finish.
   • Serve immediately with celery sticks, carrots, and your choice of ranch or blue cheese dressing from The Chop Shop’s curated grocery selection.
