These Asian Baked Chicken Wings will satisfy your cravings without deep frying! Crispy wings are tossed with an Asian-inspired sauce for a healthy weeknight dinner or game day snack.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with foil and placing a non-stick baking rack on top of it. This will ensure that the wings get crispy.
Prepare chicken wings by cutting off tips and discarding. Separate drummettes from flats.
Rinse the wings and pat them dry. Place them in a large bowl.
Mix oil and Chinese 5-Spice together and pour over chicken wings. Toss until well coated.
Arrange the wings on the rack in a single layer and place them in the oven.
Bake for a total of 50 minutes, turning half way through cooking time.
While wings are cooking, whisk hoisin sauce and jam together in a small saucepan. Heat until jam has liquified and mixture is warm.
Remove wings from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Toss with hoisin-jam sauce and serve immediately (with lots of napkins).
Notes
REHEATINGFor the best results and to keep that crispy skin, preheat your oven to 375°F. Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with foil (no need for a wire rack this time), and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. If the wings are frozen, you may need to add a few more minutes.
