Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 pounds chicken wings fresh or frozen

For the Asian Zing Sauce

  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup Sriracha sauce
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix.
  • Place the chicken wings in the crockpot and sprinkle with the seasoning mix, stirring to get the wings coated evenly on all sides.
  • Place the lid on, and cook on high for 3-4 hours, or low for 5-6 hours.
  • Once done, preheat the oven to 425˚F, remove the wings from the crockpot and place in a large bowl.
    Tip: The drier the wings are the better the sauce will stick, so try to remove as much of the liquid as possible when transferring them into the bowl.
  • Whisk together the sriracha sauce, ketchup, honey, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic powder, then pour them over the wings and toss them to coat.
  • Lay the wings on a baking sheet. Brush with more sauce and cook in the oven on the top rack for 15-18 minutes. Then, brush with remaining sauce from the bowl you mixed the wings in and serve hot.

Notes
