I think a wonderful way to honor them is to cook a summer kickoff feast for them and your friends.

Everyone loves wings and this recipe will surely please everyone at your party! My wings are super easy to make and are foolproof.

They are perfectly crisp but coated in a slightly sweet sauce with a subtle spice that can be enjoyed by everyone!

Making the Wings

My air fryer just broke so this recipe is made in the oven. You could certainly make them in your air fryer by just following the directions on your fryer. The oven method is super easy and you can make a whole bunch at one time if you’re serving a crowd.

Preparation Steps

1. Start by patting your wings dry with a paper towel then placing them in a bowl.
2. Toss them with about 3/4 of a cup of cornstarch and add some salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of garlic powder and paprika.

Cooking Instructions

1. For the wings to crisp up you have to cook them on a wire rack. First, cover your baking sheet in foil then put the rack down.
2. Place your wings on the rack and spray them generously on both sides with Olive Oil spray.
3. Cook them at 400 degrees for 30 minutes then turn and cook for 30-40 more minutes.

Crafting the Perfect Sauce

While your wings are cooking whip up your sauce.

You’ll need Peach or Apricot Jam, garlic, honey, soy sauce, lime juice, and the secret ingredient Go-Chu-Jang Sauce.

This Asian sauce is my new favorite to use to spice things up a bit but also gives a great flavor. You can easily find this in the Asian aisle of the grocery store.

Sauce Preparation

1. Cook all the above ingredients at a low simmer for about 20 minutes until it thickens up a bit.
2. Once your wings come out of the oven just toss them in a bowl with this sauce and give it a good mix then serve immediately to your happy crowd of hungry guests!

Perfect Pairings

Wings would go great with one of my Watermelon Cocktails or the Vodka Lemonade Slush because then you are guaranteed to have a patio of very happy people! Have fun and Happy Memorial Day!

Conclusion

This Memorial Day, elevate your celebration with these Spicy Peach Honey Wings—a guaranteed crowd-pleaser with their unique blend of sweetness and a kick of spice.
