6. Serve with Garnishes
Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze for an extra layer of flavor. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, toasted sesame seeds, and garnish with lemon slices.
Serving Suggestions
These Honey Pineapple Lemon Wings are best enjoyed hot, straight out of the oven. Serve them with:
- Steamed white rice for a tropical-inspired meal.
- Celery sticks and a tangy ranch or blue cheese dip for a classic pairing.
- A refreshing pineapple salsa for an extra burst of fruity flavor.
They are perfect for sharing, whether as a starter, snack, or main course.
Tips for Perfect Wings
- Pat wings dry: Ensure the chicken wings are completely dry before seasoning to achieve a crispy texture.
- Thickening the glaze: If you prefer a stickier glaze, simmer it for a few extra minutes until it coats the back of a spoon.
- Air fryer option: For a healthier alternative, cook the wings in an air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, shaking halfway through.
Storage and Reheating
- Refrigerate: Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through to preserve the crispiness.
- Freeze: Freeze cooked wings in a sealed bag for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight before reheating.
