Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken drummettes (party wings) You can use full wings if you wish.
- McCormick's Grill Mates Chicken Seasoning to taste
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- cooking oil I use olive oil and this is for the air fryer method.
Instructions
Baked Wings
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Season the chicken wings with the chicken seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Coat the chicken in flour.
- Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and add the wings to the pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes and then flip the wings.
- Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes.
- Mix the honey and bbq sauce together in a bowl or mixing cup.
- Remove the chicken and place it in a large bowl. Drizzle the honey bbq sauce throughout.
- Place the coated chicken back onto the sheet pan and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Ensure the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Use a meat thermometer.
Air Fryer Wings
- Season the chicken wings with the chicken seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. I like to do this inside ziploc bags to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
- Coat the chicken in flour. I do this inside the plastic bag.
- Spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil. I like to use olive oil.
- Add the chicken to the basket. Spray both sides with cooking oil. The floury exterior on the chicken should go away when you spray it with oil.
- Cook for 8 minutes on 400 degrees. Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if needed.
- Open the air fryer and flip the chicken. Cook for an additional 7 minutes.
- Mix the honey and bbq sauce together in a bowl or mixing cup.
- Remove the chicken and place it in a large bowl. Drizzle the honey bbq sauce throughout.
- Place the chicken back in the air fryer. Cook for an additional 5 minutes on 400 degrees. Every air fryer brand is different and cook time will vary. Use your judgment. Cook until the honey bbq sauce has dried and crisped. Ensure the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Use a meat thermometer.

Notes
- You can make your own chicken seasoning using 1/4 teaspoon of the following: onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and sage. You can also simply use salt and pepper.
