Carrageenan Free Coconut Honey Garlic Chicken Wings

Sticky, golden, and packed with bold flavor, these oven-baked wings hit every note you want — crispy skin, fragrant garlic, a touch of heat from fresh ginger, and a glossy honey glaze that clings to every bite. The secret to that lacquered finish is a quick arrowroot slurry stirred into the sauce, which thickens beautifully without any of the gums or additives that sneak into so many store-bought wing sauces and marinades. Carrageenan is a surprisingly common additive in processed sauces, dairy-based dips, and even some coconut products, so building this glaze entirely from scratch means you stay in full control of what goes into the dish. Coconut aminos bring a savory, slightly sweet depth that plays perfectly off the raw honey and apple cider vinegar, creating a sauce that tastes far more complex than its ingredient list suggests. Baking the wings on a wire rack at high heat does the heavy lifting for crispiness, so you get that satisfying crunch without a deep fryer. A squeeze of lemon and a scatter of fresh parsley at the end brighten everything up and make the plate look as good as it tastes. These are the kind of wings that disappear fast, so you might want to double the batch.
