🔥 Instructions:

1. Prep and Bake (or Air Fry):

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top (helps the wings crisp up).

2. Pat the wings dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

3. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the rack. Bake for 40–45 minutes, turning halfway through, until crispy and golden.

Alternatively: Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 22–25 minutes, flipping halfway.

3. Toss and Serve:

1. Once wings are cooked and crispy, toss them in the warm Honey BBQ sauce until well coated.

2. Optionally, return them to the oven (or air fryer) for 5 more minutes to caramelize the sauce.

3. Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions if desired.
