Easy Honey Mustard Glazed Chicken Wings (Made In The Oven)

These simple honey mustard chicken wings are one of my favorite recipes to bake when I’m having friends over to watch the game.
Made with only a few ingredients (like oyster or soy sauce, mustard and honey), they are so easy to make for a crowd. They don’t even require marinating.
And they aren’t too messy to eat. So they’re the perfect finger food to eat while sitting on the couch watching TV.

Here is your shopping list:
- meat – 3 pounds chicken wings. For less work, buy wings that are already separated.
- honey – ¼ cup liquid honey
- mustard – 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- flavoring – ½ cup oyster sauce
- oil – 1 teaspoon sesame or vegetable oil. Sesame oil has a bit more flavor.
- seasoning – ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Salt isn’t needed since the oyster sauce provides enough.
- garnishes – chopped fresh parsley, sesame seeds
Substitutions
- Soy sauce can be used instead of oyster sauce, however the glaze will be a little thinner.
- For some extra flavor, add a few drops of hot sauce.
How to make honey mustard glazed chicken wings
Prep work
Pre-heat the oven to 375℉.
Separate the wings at the joint and discard the tips.
Dry the wings with paper towel.
Line a baking sheet with foil. While this step is optional, it makes clean up much easier.
If you have a wire rack that fits on top of your baking sheet, put it in. This is also optional, but helps the honey glazed chicken wings to turn out crispier.
Spread the wings out, skin side up on the baking sheet or wire rack.
Make the honey mustard sauce
In a small bowl, mix ½ cup oyster sauce, ¼ cup liquid honey, 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon oil and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
Brush the glaze onto the wings.
Instead of this, you could mix the honey mustard glaze in a large bowl and then toss the wings in the sauce, if you prefer.
Bake
Bake at 375℉ for 50 to 55 minutes until golden brown and no longer pink inside.
Be careful not to leave them in too much longer than this. The honey will start to burn! (that’s me speaking from experience)
While most wings can be cooked at 400 F to decrease the cooking time and make the skin crispier, don’t try that with these wings. The higher temperature will cause the honey to burn.
Garnish
If you want to dress the wings up a bit, sprinkle them with chopped fresh parsley and/or sesame seeds.

These look delicious! Love the idea of using oyster sauce, bet it gives you that “hmm what is that unique flavor” feeling! Also like wings that are baked not fried.
Thanks, Krystle! Hard to believe but…I live in the south and have never learned how to properly fry chicken…so I have a whole lot of baked chicken recipes 🙂 And I do think the oyster sauce adds a little extra zing to these wings. Thanks for stopping by!
