Ingredients

• chicken wings - 500 grams
• olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
• salt - 1 teaspoon
• black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• honey - 3 tablespoons
• apple cider vinegar - 2 tablespoons
• hot sauce - 1 tablespoon
• gluten-free soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
• cayenne pepper - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, honey, apple cider vinegar, hot sauce, gluten-free soy sauce, and cayenne pepper to create the marinade.
3. Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them in the marinade until well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor).
4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the marinated chicken wings on the rack in a single layer.
5. Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.
6. Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
