Sweet and sticky keto chicken wings
Ingredients
- 2 lbs 900 g chicken wings
- ¼ cup 60 ml coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp 2 tbsp tamari soy sauce
- ¼ tsp ¼ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ¼ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp ¼ tsp chili flakes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F (225°C).
- Place the wings, with the thicker skin side up, on a rimmed baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. (The wire rack helps promote even cooking).
- Bake the wings for 35 minutes.
- When the wings have about 12 minutes left to bake, start making the sauce.
- Heat a medium skillet over medium heat, and add the coconut aminos, soy sauce, and seasoning.
- Once the sauce comes to a simmer, begin stirring. Continue to stir periodically, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer.
- Once the sauce has thickened slightly (pull the spoon through the sauce and it should take a few seconds for the "trail" to fill) you can turn off the heat while the wings finish cooking.
- Place the wings in a large heatproof bowl and pour the sauce over them. Stir to coat evenly and serve with plenty of napkins.
Tip
Break out the grill! Use medium-low heat and flip periodically to ensure even cooking. It should take about 30 minutes to cook the wings completely.

Thanks so much for your feedback. We've listened, re-tested this recipe, and improved it a bit with less coconut aminos (less sweet) and added tamari soy instead of the salt. We hope once you try it again yourself, you'll notice the difference — and love it as much as we do.
Happy cooking!

The amount of salt in the tamari and coconut aminos will vary greatly by brand. I am glad you were able to make it work. This one is frequently requested by my family.
