What is in the honey glaze?
The honey glaze that coats the baked chicken wings is easy to make and is packed full of Asian flavors:
- honey
- soy sauce
- ginger
- red pepper flakes
- line
- coriander
- sesame seeds and oil
This combination of ingredients results in a sweet and spicy glaze that is just so so good! Finish off with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves and you are set!
What sides go with these Asian chicken wings?
So I wouldn’t recommend pairing these with the usual ranch dip, though of course you can if you wish! I like to serve mine with a simple soy sauce dip like this and then serve alongside other Asian appetizers and salad sides. Check out these recipes for inspiration:

- Creamy Coleslaw Recipe (Homemade Coleslaw)
- Easy Cucumber Salad Recipe (Cucumber Onion Salad)
You could also serve this with a larger salad to make a full meal.
Why bake chicken wings instead of frying them?
I much prefer to bake wings when I make them. I find that frying them can turn into a bit of a hassle and I like the hands off approach with baking. Obviously it is also way healthier to bake your chicken wings rather than fry them. And honestly, these wings are just as crispy and succulent!
Top Tips to Make This Honey Glazed Chicken Wings Recipe
- Pat the wings dry before brushing them, this will help them to get nice and crispy.
- Flip the wings halfway through baking.
- Let the wings cool slightly before glazing them.
- Finish the wings with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
