Ed Cudlipp, also known as ‘Cud Cooks’, brings the heat with his Hot Honey Wings with Maldon Chilli Salt – the perfect balance of crisp, spicy, sweet, and savoury. Coated in a buttery hot honey glaze and finished with Maldon Chilli Sea Salt flakes, these wings are as fiery as they are addictive. It’s the kind of recipe that turns a casual night in into a feast.
Step 1 – Prep the wings
- Preheat the oven to 170°C.
- Toss the wings in olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and a generous pinch of Maldon Chilli Sea Salt.
Step 2 – Roast until crispy
- Arrange the wings on a wire rack set over a baking tray.
- Roast for 1 hour until golden, crisp, and cooked through.
Step 3 -Make the glaze
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter.
- Add honey, hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, and Maldon Chilli Sea Salt.
- Stir and warm gently until smooth and combined.
Step 4 – Toss and finish
- Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a bowl and pour over the hot honey glaze. Toss until the wings are evenly coated and sticky.
- Finish with a squeeze of lemon, sprinkle of chives, and a final pinch of Maldon Chilli Sea Salt for an extra chilli kick.
- Sticky, spicy perfection – wings that balance sweetness, heat, and Maldon’s signature salt crunch.
