These spicy chicken wings are seasoned and marinated with a honey sriracha marinade. Perfect for sharing or to enjoy with some rice or a side salad.
These chicken wings are delicious and full of flavour which comes from seasoning the chicken and letting it sit in a marinade over time. The marinade includes lime, honey, sriracha and olive oil which give these wings the perfect combination of spicy and sweet.
They go well with any salad including pasta salad or you can serve them as an appetiser or finger food. They are also good eaten alone with your favourite sauce but go particularly well with creamy base sauces such as ranch.
These spicy chicken wing are easy to prepare with convenient ingredients that are easy to buy. I usually bake them but you can grill them too or throw them on the BBQ.

Mix all the ingredients together and pour onto the seasoned chicken. Ensure you coat all the chicken in the marinade. Cover the bowl and place the chicken in the fridge for 1 - 2 hour. Overnight would be ideal.
2. Preheat the oven to gas mark 6/400oF/200oC/180oC then line a baking tray with parchment paper. Arrange the chicken wings on the baking tray ensuring there is space between each piece and allow them to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
