Chicken wings are one of my go to party dishes and they always seem to be the first thing to disappear. For me, the perfect chicken wings have to be super saucy, sticky and leave you reaching for a stack of napkins to clean up.


I think that these Sticky Honey Mustard Wings really hit all of the marks. They are slightly crispy and coated in an simple honey mustard sauce that is the perfect balance between spicy and sweet.


Baking the chicken wings on a wire rack really helps the air circulate the skin of each wing and creates a crispiness very similar to the texture of deep fried chicken wings.


The wings are served with a creamy mustard dip that is also great with some veggies for dipping. You could make the dip a day or two in advance to cut down on time, and even the chicken wing sauce could be prepped ahead of time.
