A sweet, extra hot, sticky chicken wings, baked in the oven and then smothered in a thickened delicious sauce.
These extra HOT chicken wings are so good. In fact, they are so good that my husband have requested them twice this week for dinner. He has been asking me to make chicken wings, the saucy barbecue type wings which we get in restaurants.
I didn’t want to add barbecue flavor to the wings as I just cannot stand that flavor. So I decided to make a sweet and spicy (loooove this combination) sauce for this. I added almost all the sauces I had in my pantry 😄 along with honey because I was pretty sure that you cannot go wrong with these sauces.
So I guess the real question is not what sauce I have picked, but rather, Are you ready for the best chicken wings recipe-ever?!!! This is really high standard, atleast according to us. 😁 But if you are a sweet and spicy combi lover, with one bite you will know that these wings were meant for you.
