Notes
This is a spicy recipe. If you are wanting something more mild I would omit the cayenne pepper and increase the honey to hot sauce ratio.
You can store these hot honey chicken wings in an airtight container in your fridge for 3-4 days.
To reheat you can do so in your oven on a baking sheet with foil on top in an even layer at 350 degrees, or in your microwave until everything has warmed through.
