Pasture Raised Chicken Wings Recipe: Honey Garlic Glazed Chicken Wings
Ingredients:
For the Chicken Wings:
- 2 lbs pasture-raised chicken wings, tips removed and separated at joints
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Honey Garlic Glaze:
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free option)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Prepare the Chicken Wings:
- Pat the pasture-raised chicken wings dry with paper towels. This helps achieve crispy skin when baking.
-
Season and Toss:
- In a bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
-
Bake the Wings:
- Arrange the chicken wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a wire rack. Make sure they are spaced out to allow even cooking. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
-
Prepare the Glaze:
- While the wings are baking, prepare the honey garlic glaze. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat.
-
Glaze the Wings:
- Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the honey garlic glaze over the wings and toss to coat them evenly.
-
Return to Oven:
- Return the glazed wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze caramelizes and becomes sticky.
-
Serve and Garnish:
- Transfer the honey garlic glazed pasture-raised chicken wings to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions for a burst of freshness.

Easy Pan-Seared Chicken Breasts
Today, I’m excited to share a simple yet flavorful recipe for pan-seared chicken breasts that’s perfect for any night of the week. Whether you’re a busy parent, a student, or just someone looking to whip up a quick and tasty dinner, this recipe has got you covered!
Why Pan-Seared Chicken?
Pan-searing chicken breasts is one of the best methods for achieving that perfect golden crust while keeping the meat juicy and tender. Plus, it only takes about 20 minutes from start to finish! Let’s dive into the recipe.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or your favorite herb)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prep the Chicken
Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This is a crucial step to ensure a nice sear! Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and thyme. Feel free to experiment with your favorite herbs here—rosemary or oregano work well, too!
2. Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. This will help create that lovely crust on the chicken.
3. Cook the Chicken
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on one side without moving them. This will give them a beautiful golden crust.
After 6-7 minutes, flip the chicken and add the minced garlic to the pan. Cook for another 6-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). The aroma of garlic will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait!
4. Optional Finish
For a bright pop of flavor, drizzle lemon juice over the chicken in the last minute of cooking. It adds a delightful tang that complements the savory notes beautifully.
5. Rest and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring your chicken stays juicy.
Slice the chicken, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve with your favorite sides. I love pairing it with roasted vegetables or a simple salad for a well-rounded meal.
Enjoy!
And there you have it—a quick, easy, and delicious pan-seared chicken breast recipe that’s sure to impress! Whether it’s a weeknight dinner or a meal prep option, this dish is versatile and packed with flavor.
