Start by preparing your chicken wings, cutting them into drumsticks and flats if necessary. Pat them dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness during cooking.

Decide how you want to cook your wings: air fryer, oven, or deep fryer. If using an air fryer, preheat it to 360°F and cook the wings for 13 minutes; flip and continue cooking at 350°F for an additional 12 minutes. For oven baking, preheat to 400°F and arrange the wings on a lined baking sheet, baking for about 30 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

While the wings are cooking, prepare the zesty sauce in a medium saucepan by combining honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, rice vinegar, Sriracha, tomato paste, and freshly grated ginger. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes syrupy.

Once the wings are cooked, place them in a large bowl while they're still warm. Pour the prepared sauce over the wings, ensuring every piece is thoroughly coated. Toss gently but thoroughly.

Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter. Serve with fresh celery sticks and a side of creamy dip like ranch or blue cheese.
