These baked honey soy chicken wings come out glossy, savory, and lightly sweet with a sticky glaze that clings to every piece. They are perfect for parties, game day, or an easy Asian-inspired dinner.
In a bowl, whisk together the honey, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and canola oil until the honey is fully dissolved.
Place the chicken wings in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour in the marinade, seal, and turn to coat evenly. Marinate for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to overnight if preparing ahead.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F, or 180°C/350°F fan. Line a large baking tray with foil, then top with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Arrange the wings on the prepared tray in a single layer, skin side up. Reserve the marinade. Bake for 30 minutes.
Carefully pour off and discard the liquid collected on the tray. This helps the glaze thicken instead of staying watery.
Pour the reserved marinade over the wings and toss them on the tray until coated. Spread them back into a single layer, skin side up.
Reduce the oven to 180°C/350°F, or 160°C/320°F fan. Bake for another 30 minutes, basting the wings with the tray sauce every 10 minutes. Move the wings around if they brown unevenly, and turn any that are coloring too quickly.
When the wings are cooked through, deeply glazed, and the sauce is syrupy, transfer them to a serving bowl. Spoon over any sticky tray glaze, then garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onion.
For the best glaze, do not skip draining the first batch of tray juices. If the sauce is still thin near the end, remove the wings to a plate and return the tray sauce to the oven for a few minutes until it reduces. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or air fryer to revive the sticky edges.
