A delightful twist on classic chicken wings, featuring a sweet and savory honey za'atar glaze.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and crispy skin.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the chicken wings in a single layer.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Sprinkle the chicken wings evenly with salt, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and za'atar spice mix.
Ensure even seasoning for consistent flavor.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Flip the wings halfway through for even cooking.
While the wings are baking, mix the juice of half a lemon with honey in a small bowl.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey.
Remove the wings from the oven and brush them with the honey-lemon glaze on both sides.
Use a brush for even application of the glaze.
Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
This step caramelizes the glaze for a sticky finish.
Let the wings cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Cooling allows the glaze to set and enhances the flavor.
