Stop whatever you’re doing and alert the media: You need to make these sticky, spicy, oven-baked chicken wings right now. They're exactly what they claim to be (sticky, spicy, oven-baked), but they’re also incredibly tasty and far easier than they have any right to be. Seriously, you might make this every night from now on. They’re that easy (just three steps!) and that good.
Messing these up is almost impossible, which means you can adjust them to your own taste. A little more or less garlic, honey or adobo sauce won’t affect the perfect outcome of these wings, so tinker to your heart’s content. Just make sure you have a few people to share them with, or you just might eat them all.
