Honey BBQ Baked Boneless Wings

Boneless wings are one of our favorite foods to eat, especially when there is a football game on. If you haven’t tried my Baked Boneless Buffalo Wings yet you need too! I decided to try my same tried and true baked boneless wing recipe with another sauce. This Honey BBQ sauce was so good! My husband was surprised how fast it was for me to make and how good it tasted!

The boneless wings are so easy to make. Just cut your chicken into strips or chunks, dip in an egg/milk mixture then a flour/panko breadcrumb spice mix and bake! Over the years I have perfected the recipe and I know you will love it! Even though it’s baked it is still crispy and crunchy. It’s very delicious!

The Honey BBQ sauce is easy and fast to make. Just mix together the ingredients in a saucepan, heat up and it’s ready! The flavor is outstanding! It was so easy and so good I was sad it took me so long to make Honey BBQ wings!

The only ingredient you might not have is liquid smoke. We found it in the condiment section at the grocery store and it didn’t cost very much. Plus it added a nice smoky bbq flavor to the sauce. I recommend it but the sauce would still be really good without it.

You will love this recipe!

Enjoy!

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 9 minutes
Total Time 29 minutes

Ingredients

Honey BBQ Sauce:

  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/3 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tsp. liquid smoke
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. paprika
  • 1/4 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp. onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

Boneless Wings:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 2/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 large egg or 2 egg whites
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small chunks or strips (about ¾-1 lb. of chicken)

Instructions

    For the Honey BBQ Sauce:

    1. Mix all ingredients together in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until ingredients are well combined. Keep warm on the lowest temperature as you prepare the chicken. (Or you can prepare the sauce while the chicken is baking.)

    Boneless Wings:

    1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Combine the flour, panko breadcrumbs, paprika, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper in a small mixing bowl. Whisk the egg(s) and milk together in a small bowl.
    2. Place a piece of foil or parchment paper on a cookie sheet and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
    3. Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dip each piece into the egg mixture, then into the breading blend; then repeat the process so that each piece of chicken is double coated. (Tip: Use one hand to handle the egg mixture and the other hand for the breading to make it easier.) (Or to save time just dip once in the egg mixture then the breading blend.)
    4. Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet and then spray a light coating of cooking spray over the chicken pieces. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and begins to lightly brown.
    5. Turn the heat up to broil and continue to cook the chicken for 1-2 more minutes or until the surface begins to become golden brown and crispy.
    6. When the chicken pieces are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Toss chicken with the Honey BBQ sauce. (I just toss the chicken in the saucepan.) Serve immediately.

    Notes

    To make ahead- Once chicken is cooked through but before the 1-2 min. broil, take chicken out of oven. Let cool completely then freeze. When ready to bake, remove from freezer and bake at 400 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until warmed through. Toss with sauce and serve.

    6. Can I sub in more molasses in place of honey or maple syrup? I want to make these for a family dinner but I can’t give my baby led feeding baby honey because they’re under 1 yr old.

      • I am not sure because I haven’t tried it but it seems like it should work. Brown sugar could be another option too. Let me know how it turns out!

    7. Hi Becky
      Love this recipe. I’m making for a Christmas party and want to cook at home then travel approximately 1hour to party. I would like to keep them crispy and add to sauce on arrival. Any idea on reheating on arrival ? Thanks, Larry
