Enjoy a twist on regular hot wings with this easy, keto-friendly & low-carb Honey Sriracha Wings recipe. It includes a sugar-free substitute for honey as well as directions to bake wings in the oven or make chicken wings in an air fryer.

What Makes These Wings Awesome

If you’ve ever had regular Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings, then you know they’re awesome because they give the heat of hot wings, along with the combo of sweet & savory.

But, if you’re trying to cut sugar from your meals or follow a low-carb way of eating, the honey in the recipe makes them a bit of a no-go.

In this dish, I’m using ChocZero Sugar-free Caramel Syrup as a 1g net carb replacement for honey. This simple swap gives all the flavor of honey without the sugar.

Ingredients

This recipe has two main parts: Crispy Chicken Wings and Honey Sriracha Sauce. So, you’ll need to two sets of ingredients.

To make the crispy chicken wings, you’ll need the spices below as well as chicken wings:

For the honey sriracha sauce, you’ll need to gather, these four ingredients:

How to Make These Wings

Gather your chicken wings and spices. Mix the spices in a small bowl (photos 1 & 2).

Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on your chicken wings and toss them to coat (photos 3 & 4).

Next, it’s your choice about whether you want to cook the wings in the oven or make them in the air fryer.

Making the sauce requires you to just mix them in a bowl. I always set it aside until after the wings are cooked.

My Top Cooking Tips & Recipe FAQs

  • Oven or Air Fryer: I choose the air fryer when I’m short on time (with my recipe it takes just 30 minutes). I go for the oven when I want to make enough for a crowd since there’s more space on the baking sheet.
  • Rice Wine Vinegar: If you don’t have this in your pantry, you can also substitute it for lime juice.
  • Baking Powder: This causes a reaction when heated that allows the chicken wing skin to rise and cook faster than the rest of the meat. So, I don’t substitute it or omit it when I want crispy and saucy chicken wings.
Is honey keto-friendly or low-carb?

A tablespoon of honey has about 20g of net carbs. So, it will most likely knock anyone out of ketosis. This is why I’m using a honey substitute in this recipe. It has 1g net carbs.

Is sriracha keto-friendly?

Sriracha has about 1g net carbs per serving. So, for most, it fits within daily macros. If you are following Whole30, you should pick up a Whole30 compliant brand.

Can you substitute baking powder for baking soda?

No. They are not the same. If you don’t have baking powder, you can omit it and increase the cook time for some crunch, but it will not be as crispy.

    2nd recipe of dr.davins’s I’ve tried and I was not disappointed! I airfryed my wings, they came out crunchy and the sauce was great! Super quick to put it all together and it was flavorful!

    Did some in air fryer because we were very hungry and cooked rest in oven. The only change made was I used imitation sugar free honey because that is all I had. These were easy to prepare and the sauce was delicious. Definitely a keeper.

    Would regular store-bought sugar free syrup work for this recipe?

      Hi Kofi,

      I haven’t tried this, but I imagine that it would. The only difference may be in the consistency. Choczero has the same consistency as honey so when shopping try to find the thickest one you can find. Let me know how it goes! Love having these!

      Best,
      Davinah

      That’s for 6 servings (so about 1/2lb of meat per person).
