    Honey Old Bay Wing Details 

    Flavor: These wings are sweet and spicy thanks to the Old Bay seasoning and honey. 

    Time: These wings take about 45 minutes to make. 

    Level of Difficulty: Simple! These wings require a few basic steps to get this easy chicken wing recipe. 

    Ingredients

    Crispy Honey Old Bay Wing ingredients: chicken wings, flour, honey, Old Bay Seasoning and butter.
    • Use the wingette and drumette from the chicken wings to make these spicy honey chicken wings! 
    • The honey coats the wings and is broiled on to make these wings extra crispy. 
    • Old Bay Seasoning is baked into the wing. The seasoning is also mixed with the honey to create the wing sauce.  
    • Flour is used to keep the wings crispy. 
    • The butter adds a smooth texture to the sauce and additional salty sweetness. 

    Substitutions & Variations

    • To make these wings into boneless wings, ​purchase boneless wings and cook according to the package directions. Toss wings with sauce after cooking and broil to bake the sauce in. Be sure to watch them closely as they can burn quickly.
    • To add more spice, use a hot honey! Mike's Hot Honey is my go to if I am not making homemade. To make your honey hot, when heating up the Old Bay Honey Sauce, add some crushed red pepper fl​akes to taste! You can also add some hot sauce​ to the sauce! 
    • If you can't find Old Bay Seasoning, substitute J.O. Seasoning. J.O. Seasoning is a Maryland flare of Old Bay Seasoning. It tends to be a little saltier than Old Bay so add a little less to the honey to balance out the salt.
    • Substitute the flour with baking powder.  

    Instructions

    FAQ

    What is Old Bay Seasoning? Old Bay Seasoning is a mixture of paprika, celery salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper. This seasoning is a staple in Maryland and on the Eastern Shore. Traditionally, Old Bay is used to season crabs and shrimp. The seasoning is delicious on chicken, in dips and as a dry rub.  How can I make my wings crispy? Make a crispy wing by patting the wings completely dry with a paper towel. For extra crispiness, place the wings uncovered on the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for an hour or up to overnight to dry any moisture out of the wings. 

    Can I make my wings ahead of time?
    I always serve chili with a slice of cornbread or a cornbread muffin to make a full meal. Any piece of good crusty bread will work! 

    How can I thicken my chili?

    Serve the Honey Old Bay Wings with ranch dressing, green onion and lemon juice. Make sure to have plenty of napkins because these wings are sticky!
