These wings deliver the kind of shatteringly crispy skin that most people assume only a deep fryer can produce — but the oven does all the heavy lifting here. The secret is getting the wings genuinely dry before they go in, then letting arrowroot starch and a blast of high heat work their magic on the rack. Turmeric and ground ginger give the coating a warm, golden depth before the glaze even enters the picture. That glaze — built from coconut aminos, honey, fresh garlic, and grated ginger — reduces into something sticky, savory, and just barely sweet, with fresh thyme stirred in at the end for a bright herbal finish. Every ingredient is straightforward and naturally free from tree nut concerns, so you can serve these at a gathering without scanning labels or fielding questions. A squeeze of lemon over the top right before eating cuts through the richness and makes the whole thing feel a little more alive. These are the kind of wings that disappear fast, so consider doubling the batch.

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.
