Instructions

  • Start by washing and patting dry the chicken wings to ensure they are free of excess moisture. In a bowl, prepare your Korean BBQ sauce. 
  • Pour the sauce into the chicken. Generously brush the chicken wings with the prepared BBQ sauce, making sure each piece is evenly coated for maximum flavor. For extra flavor, you can even dip the chicken into the sauce for a thicker coating.
  • Cover the chicken wings with plastic wrap and let them marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse. The longer the wings marinate, the more intense the BBQ flavor. If you're short on time, you can skip marinating, but it will improve the flavor if done correctly. At the same time preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Place the chicken wings on the rack, making sure there is enough space between them for even cooking. Bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.

Notes

  • Perfect Marinade Timing: Let your chicken wings marinate for at least 30 minutes to fully absorb the flavors of the Korean BBQ sauce. For an extra punch, marinate overnight.
  • Crispy Skin Hack: Pat the chicken wings dry before applying the sauce to ensure a crispier texture after baking.
  • Extra Sauce: Keep some BBQ sauce aside to brush over the wings after cooking for an even bolder flavor.
  • Even Cooking: Flip the wings halfway through baking to ensure both sides cook evenly and achieve the perfect golden crust.
