Ingredients

Honey BBQ Chicken Wing recipes

  • 800 grams chicken wings Note 1
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce Note 2
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tbs sriracha sauce Note 3
  • sesame seeds Note 4
  • shallots to garnish
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Honey BBQ Chicken Wings (Slow Cooker)

  • Make the marinade by combining BBQ sauce, honey and sriracha in a glass jug and whisk to combine.
  • Spray the base of your Slow Cooker (Crockpot) and use kitchen tongs to transfer the wings into the bowl. Note 5
  • Season the wings with salt and pepper. Place the lid on an cook for 1.5 hrs on high or 3 hrs on low.
  • Line a baking dish with paper and a wire rack.
  • Place the cooked chicken wings onto the rack and use a pastry brush to coat each wing with the BBQ marinade
  • Sprinkle sesame seeds onto the sauce over each wing
  • Place rack under the broiler for 10 mins, keeping a close eye on it. Sesame seeds will turn a light brown shade and chicken skin will caramelize.
  • Garnish with sliced shallots.
  • Serve with a salad, side dish or on their own.

Notes

  • Note 1 You can buy the chicken wings in a whole piece and cut them into 3 OR you can purchase chicken wing nibblets where they have already been cut for you. This makes them SO easy and I love the convenience. 
  • Note 2 the BBQ marinade will stretch to cover up to 1kg of wings. Double it if you need to make 1kg plus wings. 
  • Note 3 This sauce has some kick to it!! The BBQ sauce mellows it especially when combined with the honey. So give it a go, as you will likely love the depth and extent of character in the sauce through this spicy but not mouth on fire flavour. 
  • Note 4 Sprinkle the sesame seeds onto the chicken once you have brushed the wings with the BBQ sauce. They will stick easily. They can also be used as a guide when you have placed the wings under the broiler as the seeds will toast and their colour change inform you that the stick wings are ready! 
  • Note 5 Lay your wings flat so that they are not on top of each other.
