Print Recipe

Sticky, spicy-sweet grilled chicken wings with a honey sriracha glaze that caramelizes perfectly on the grill, delivering juicy, tender meat with a smoky finish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds fresh chicken wings, split at the joints and tips trimmed
  • 1/4 cup (85 grams) honey (raw or wildflower preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Rinse and pat dry the chicken wings. Trim wing tips if desired for easier grilling. Dry wings help the glaze stick better. (5 minutes)
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine honey, sriracha, soy sauce, minced garlic, lime juice, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Whisk until smooth. (5 minutes)
  3. Toss the wings in half of the glaze, coating evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to marinate. (30-60 minutes)
  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (375°F to 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates with vegetable oil using a paper towel and tongs. (10 minutes)
  5. Place wings skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 10 minutes, flipping and basting with remaining glaze every 3-4 minutes. Grill until golden, slightly charred, and internal temperature reaches 165°F. (20-25 minutes)
  6. Transfer wings to a plate or sheet pan and let rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute and glaze to set. Serve warm with extra lime wedges. (5 minutes)

Notes

Keep a spray bottle of water handy to control grill flare-ups caused by the sticky glaze. Use tongs to flip wings to avoid piercing the skin and losing juices. Marinate wings for at least 30 minutes, up to 1 hour for deeper flavor. Oil grill grates to prevent sticking. For oven cooking, bake at 425°F for 40-45 minutes, turning and basting halfway, then broil 2-3 minutes to caramelize glaze.
