Sticky Honey Soy Chicken Wings
I love these gorgeous and absolutely scrumptious honey soy chicken wings. I chanced upon a similar recipe from a Taiwanese cookbook in my good friend’s home and that inspired me to make these wings.
Main Ingredients
Therefore, this is my version of these chicken wings using
- Soy sauce
- Honey
- Sake
- Mirin
See the recipe card for full information on ingredients.
How To Make Honey Soy Chicken Wings
First you marinate the chicken wings, then you bake them in the oven.
During the baking process, you glaze it with the honey soy sauce a couple of times so the chicken wings soak up all the goodness of the glaze. Do it a couple of times and you are good to go.
These chicken wings are delicious and can be served any day, occasions, and great for parties. The taste is absolutely savory, sticky sweet (in a good way) and finger-licking good.
If you love chicken wings, you would love them.

Are there any other sweet wine substitution for the Mirin for a last minute “throw together” feast? Thanks.
Just use sugar.
Made these alongside coleslaw and fresh rice the other day! They were delicious. Will definitely make them again.
Hello dear…i want to ask u what ingredient to substitute mirin and sake for muslim?
Sorry there is no substitution that is without alcohol, you can skip them but they won’t taste the same.
Looks yummy!
If I use gluten free soy sauce will it work?
These look really tasty! :)
Can I leave out the sake?
You can use Chinese rice wine (clear and no color). Leaving it out will not be as good.
Do you have the nutritional information for this recipe?
No.
The new facelift looks really sleek and clean! I really like it :-). Do you do the whole thing yourself? Also, this recipe seems perfect for a weekday dinner! 30 mins marination and 15 mins cooking. We love chicken wings especially with sticky glazes.
Jayne, thanks for your note. No way, but I know exactly what I wanted and the amazing design/developer team did it for me. :)
Bee, what is “black pepper powder”?
Black pepper.
Wow these wings look absolutely mouthwatering…can I have some please?
Of course you can have some. :)
