Honey-Garlic Chicken Wings Board with Lemon Yogurt Dip

Honey-Garlic Chicken Wings Board with Lemon Yogurt Dip

Recipe created by Alison Marras

The secret to crispy baked chicken wings (also can be made sing our drumsticks too!) is using a wire rack on your baking or “cookie” sheet for 360-degree airflow in your oven! Even better if you can use a convection setting on your oven. Add your sauce after cooking and uplevel your serving game with a beautiful platter of crudites and dipping sauce! This is a major crowd-pleasing appetizer or meal.

    Optional to make it a chicken wing board: Crudite vegetables such as chopped raw carrots, broccoli, or celery

    Ingredients

    Sea salt
    1 tsp
    Olive oil (or olive oil spray)
    1 tsp
    - Honey-Garlic Sauce:
    Garlic powder
    1/2 Tbsp
    Garlic flakes (or may use all garlic powder)
    1/2 Tbsp
    Scallions, chopped and divided
    1 bunch
    Raw honey
    2 Tbsp
    Extra-virgin olive oil
    1/4 cup
    - Lemon Yogurt Dip:
    Coconut yogurt (for dairy-free) or Greek yogurt
    1/4 cup
    Lemon, juice and zest
    1 small
    Sea salt
    1/2 tsp

    Utensils

    • Baking sheet
    • Aluminum foil
    • Large mixing bowl

    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 425f degrees (use the convection setting if you have it for slightly speedier cooking), arrange a rack in the middle of the oven, and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and a wire rack on top.

    Rub the wire rack (or spray) with ½ the olive oil and add the chicken wings flat-side (or skin-side) down. Season with the rest of the olive oil and sea salt.

    Bake in the oven for approx. 45-50 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through. As the skin cooks and crisps, it will release drippings which may cause some smoke in the house, so have your windows open and fan turned on (it’s worth it, trust me). Trim off any burned wing ends if you have them.

    Meanwhile, mix all ingredients including ½ of the chopped scallions for the honey-garlic sauce in a large mixing bowl and toss cooked chicken in the sauce until well coated right out of the oven and let sit. Next, mix up the yogurt dip in a serving bowl.

    Serve chicken wings with the yogurt dip, and garnish with more chopped scallions.

    Optionally serve on a crudite board with your favorite chopped raw vegetables.
