Spicy Oven Chicken Wings with Apple Onion Dip
Easy Oven Chicken Wings that are sure to please. These sweet and spicy chicken wings with apple onion dip combine some of my favorite flavors.Â
Aren’t they something?
Let me tell you, these Oven Chicken Wings taste even better than they look! Thanks to a few key ingredients…
Two Mustards. Honey (or Maple Syrup.) Caramelized Onions. Apple Butter.
Honestly, how could they not taste fabulous?
There’s a mustard made here in Asheville that is famous for its spicy heat and depth of flavor. It’s called Lusty Monk. Have you heard of it?
Lusty Monk is sort of a hometown hero and an enigma rolled into one. You’ve got to find the stuff before you can partake. Unfortunately there seem to only be a few places that carry it and sometimes they’re sold out. Even so, it’s worth store-hopping to get your hands on it.
If you are a mustard connoisseur, Lusty Monk is mind boggling good, you’ve got to try it!
These sweet and spicy Oven Chicken Wings are bathed in a sticky coating of fiery Lusty Monk, dijon, maple syrup, and sriracha chili sauce for an extra little kick in the pants.
These Oven Chicken Wings aren’t so spicy that you can’t enjoy them, but they do pack a punch!
As if that weren’t enough, I then made a savory-sweet dipping sauce with caramelized onions, greek yogurt and Musselman’s Apple Butter to accompany the Oven Chicken Wings.
The deep caramel flavor of the onions pairs perfectly with apple butter, and is nicely balanced with the tang of the yogurt.
Apple Onion Dip not only complements the spicy Oven Chicken Wings, it makes a great dip for veggies as well.
Spicy Oven Chicken Wings with Apple Onion Dip would make a fantastic snack for movie night of your next weekend get-together!
Spicy Oven Chicken Wings with Apple Onion Dip
Ingredients
For the Spicy Oven Chicken Wings:
- 3 pounds chicken wings or drumettes
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup spicy whole grain mustard like Lusty Monk
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha chili sauce
For the Apple Onion Dip:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 small onion diced
- 3 tablespoons Musselman's Apple Butter
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Musselman's Apple Cider Vinegar
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Dry the chicken wings thoroughly with paper towels, then toss with oil, garlic powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread evenly over the baking sheet. Bake the wings for 20 minutes. Flip, then bake another 15-20 minutes until the skin is crisp.
- Meanwhile, whisk the mustards, maple syrup and Sriracha together. Once the chicken has cooked through and the skin is crispy, pour the sauce over the chicken and toss to coat. Spread the wings back out and bake another 10 minutes.
For the Apple Onion Dip:
- While the chicken is baking, place a small skillet of medium-low heat. Add the butter and onions and saute for 10-15 minutes until the onions are caramelized.
- Mix the onions with the Musselman's apple butter, Greek yogurt, dijon, and Musselman's apple cider vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve the spicy chicken wings warm, with the apple onion dip.

I didn’t make the chicken wings, but they look scrumptious and they’re going on my to-do list. I did, however, adapt your dip recipe to serve with sausage cheese balls and I must tell you, it was amazing. I only made a few changes because I didn’t have everything on hand. It was delicious!

I love the idea of an onion dip! Sounds so much better than dipping in ranch!
Hi
You have 3 Tb. cup vegetable oil, is that suppose to be 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil, I don’t think it’s 3 cups.
Sorry Jackie, fixed!
These look wonderful! I love mustard, so I definitely need to look for this at the store!
Made this over the weekend. The wings recipe was amazing! Easy to make, incredibly flavorful and the skin had a great crispness to it. But, as much as I loved the wings, the dip was a sad disappointment. The apple butter and onions couldn’t overtake the excessive, bland yogurt taste. Stick to the wings and find another dip.
I will have to try these on the grill, love wings from the grill.
Love the sauce Sommer!
Oh man, these wings look amazing. My husband will love this :)
Wow, wow, wow! This looks so incredibly moist and flavorful. Can’t wait to try it!
I thought I commented on this one already!! But just FYI your wings have become my go-to summer food. I am a woman obsessed!
I’m SUCH a dipper- give me a good dip and I’ll eat anything! This one sounds amazing Sommer!
Oh, please pass the whole bowl!
Oh wow, that sounds amazing!
This sounds great for 4th of July. Could the Apple Onion Dip be used as a marinade as well?
These are truly wing-tastic!
I love the flavor twist you added to this wings recipe! I bet they are so delish!!!
The apple onion dip sounds amazing with the wings and oh so many other things!!!
Apple onion dip?!? Come to mama :D
Great dip idea, I have to try it with veggies!
I think I could eat that dip with a spoon, yum!
Yum! The chicken wings sound amazing and the dip, oh boy! Wonderful recipe!
These look perfectttttt :)
Absolutely ingenious flavor combinations, Sommer! This sounds SO scrumptious. Perfect for cookouts or weeknights that need a little more spice!
This dip is so creative. I love it!
Now I’m literally salivating! I can only imagine how incredible these flavors are together! Now if only it would cool down enough to turn on my oven…
What a great flavor combo, delish!
This is happening this week. So happy to have enough LUSTY MONK left to make this amazing recipe!!!
Great idea to use apple butter! Wish I had a plate of these for myself! I will definitely remember the name of that mustard and will see if it pops up out here in Colorado.
I am loving the sound of this apple onion dip. Can I dip everything into it??
Lusty monk! I nearly fell of my chair laughing at that one. Great name and great wings!
oh jeeeeez!! so good!
Going on the grocery list for this week! Sounds so great :)
Love that dip, mouth watering!

Brilliant idea and looks easy and fuss free! Definitely trying this out
This chicken makes me so happy! I love everything about it – especially the mustard ;)
Love that dip!
Those are some tasty looking chicken wings and I am liking the mustard and apple flavour combo!
I feel weird saying I’m buying lusty monk, but I’m going to. I want to spoon the sauce up with a spoon!
oh wow, love the apple onion flavor combination! this would be perfect for summer AND football tailgating!
Is it weird that I want these for breakfast?
Ok, the wings sound amazing, but I’m even more excited about this DIP!!
Finger lickin’!!
Ooh! These wings and dip look mighty tasty, Sommer!
Oh wow! The flavors on those wings sound amazing. But it’s really the dip that grabbed me. I love the idea of the apple butter with caramelized onions. Yum!
My family would love it if I made these! They look awesome and we are currently on a southern vacay. Everyone wants wings, ribs, and pulled pork! LOL
These look awesome!
