Enjoy crispy baked chicken wings coated in a spicy chili garlic sauce, perfect for a flavorful appetizer or main dish.

2 pounds chicken wings (Fresh wings are always better for crisping up nicely.)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (Adds depth and savory notes to the wings.)
2 tablespoons cornstarch (The secret to achieving that light crunch-perfect coating.)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika (Infuses a subtle smoky flavor.)
1 teaspoon salt (Enhances flavors.)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (Balances the seasoning.)
1/4 cup chili sauce (The source of heat and tangy sweetness.)
2 tablespoons butter (Adds richness and helps the sauce coat the wings.)
2 garlic cloves minced garlic (Infuses bold, aromatic flavor.)
for garnish fresh parsley finely chopped (Adds a pop of freshness and color.)

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat wings dry, then toss with soy sauce, cornstarch, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Arrange wings on a parchment-lined baking sheet with a wire rack. Bake for 20 minutes, flip, then bake another 20 minutes until golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan, sauté garlic until fragrant, then stir in chili sauce and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
Transfer hot wings to a large bowl, pour chili garlic sauce over, and toss to coat evenly.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot with dips or sides.

For extra crispiness, broil the wings for 2 minutes at the end of baking.
