      1. Pat wings very dry with paper towels.

      2. In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients in the dry rub, then add your wings and toss until coated.

      3. Cover a large sheet pan with parchment paper and arrange wings spaced evenly apart.

      4. Let sit for 30 minutes to one hour if you have the time.

      5. Preheat oven to 425°F

      6. Bake the wings for 50 minutes, tossing halfway through

      1. When the wings are almost done baking, add all the ingredients for the glaze in a small pot over medium heat. Whisk to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes until glossy.

      1. Toss the wings in the glaze until coated — you may have some extra sauce which you can drizzle on top at the end.

      2. Return to the oven for 3–5 minutes if you want the glaze extra sticky and caramelized. Or broil the wings under low heat for 1 minute but keep a close eye on it!

      3. Optional: Finish with sesame seeds and chives or cilantro.
