Crispy, golden chicken wings with a sticky garlic-herb glaze are the kind of crowd-pleaser that disappears fast — and this version is built entirely from clean, naturally gluten-free ingredients. The secret to that shatteringly crisp skin is arrowroot starch, which coats the wings beautifully and crisps up in a hot oven without any wheat-based flour in sight. A wire rack set over the baking sheet lets hot air circulate all around each piece, so you get that deep golden crunch on every surface. The glaze comes together in minutes on the stovetop — coconut aminos stand in for soy sauce and bring that savory, umami depth without any gluten concerns, while honey, apple cider vinegar, fresh garlic, and grated ginger round it out into something genuinely addictive. Turmeric and ground ginger in the coating add a warm, aromatic backbone that makes these wings taste far more complex than the short ingredient list suggests. Finish with fresh thyme stirred into the glaze, a scatter of parsley, and a squeeze of lemon, and you have a plate that looks and tastes like it came from a serious kitchen — no compromises required.

Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425°F (220°C). Set a wire rack inside a large rimmed baking sheet and lightly grease the rack with a little coconut oil.
Pat the chicken wings thoroughly dry with paper towels — the drier the surface, the crisper the skin. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
