1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying

Directions

Fry or grill the wings for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and crispy.
Once cooked, toss the wings in the hot honey peach sauce until well coated.
Serve and enjoy!

How to Serve Hot Honey Peach Wings

These wings are best served hot straight from the fryer or grill. You can present them on a large platter and garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley for an extra pop of color. They pair well with a side of celery or carrot sticks and a cool dipping sauce, such as ranch or blue cheese.

How to Store Hot Honey Peach Wings

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They can stay fresh for up to three days. To reheat, place the wings in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes to make them crispy again. You can also reheat them in a microwave, but they may not stay crispy.

Tips to Make Hot Honey Peach Wings

Make sure to dry the chicken wings thoroughly before frying or grilling. This helps them become crispy.
Adjust the amount of hot sauce based on your spice preference.
For an extra depth of flavor, marinate the wings with the sauce for a few hours before cooking.

Variation

You can easily switch up this recipe by adding other fruit preserves, like apricot or raspberry, instead of peach. For a smokier flavor, consider adding smoked paprika to the sauce.
