Variations and Substitutes
- Grilled Wings: For a smoky flavor, try grilling the wings instead of baking or frying. Grill them over medium heat for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and crispy.
- Boneless Wings: If you prefer boneless wings, substitute the chicken wings with breaded and fried chicken tenders. The sauce will work just as well for boneless options.
- Different sauces: If honey barbecue isn’t your favorite, you can try swapping it with your favorite sauce, such as buffalo, garlic parmesan, or sweet chili.
