Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings flats and drumsticks separated
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
For the breading
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon pepper
For the sauce
- ¼ cup coconut aminos or gluten free soy sauce if not Paleo/Whole30
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon chili sauce
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 clove garlic minced
Garnish
- ¼ cup chives minced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
- While the oven is preheating, add all breading ingredients to a large bowl (stir well to combine).
- In a separate large bowl, toss the chicken wings in extra virgin olive oil.
- Individually toss each wing in the breading mixture until lightly breaded. Place wings in an even layer onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Bake in 500 degree preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- While the wings bake, prepare the sauce. Add all sauce ingredients to a small saucepan and heat through until smooth (stirring occasionally). 3 - 5 minutes. Turn heat down to low to keep the sauce warm until ready to use.
- Once the wings are cooked through and crispy, place them in a large bowl, pour the sauce into the bowl and gently toss until evenly coated.
- Garnish with fresh chives and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
- The coconut flour can be swapped out for any finely ground Paleo-friendly flour. Almond flour or cassava flour are great options.
