Recipe Notes
Tips and Substitutions:
- Line baking sheet pan with parchment paper- This will prevent wings from sticking to the pan and will make clean up much easier later.
- Make sure to toss wings well each time- You want the wings to be well coated in oil and the sauce. This way they will cook evenly and every wing will be as flavorful.
- Substitute for avocado oil- Use olive oil or coconut oil.
