1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 c maple syrup
1 Tbsp soy sauce, low sodium
4 lb bag party chicken wings

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • 2. Line a large baking dish with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick spray.

  • 6. Bake in oven 45-60 minutes, making sure to baste about every 15 minutes.
  • 7. Flip wings over during the last 15 minutes of baking and baste again. Bake for the last 15 minutes.
  • 8. Serve with any kind of dipping sauce you like. I always use "Three Cheese Ranch"... but it's up to you!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of spices. The five-spice powder used in this recipe is a blend of cinnamon, cloves, fennel, star anise, and Szechuan peppercorns. You can also use other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or paprika, to create your own unique blend.
  • Marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors of the spices to penetrate the chicken and make them more flavorful.
  • Cook the chicken wings over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning and will allow them to cook evenly.
  • Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
