# Method:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and position a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the rack with cooking spray or oil.
02 - Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss wings with olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
03 - Arrange seasoned wings in a single layer on the prepared rack. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
04 - While wings bake, bring chicken broth, butter, and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18 minutes. Remove from heat, keep covered, and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
05 - In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add honey, soy sauce, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, and chili flakes. Bring to a simmer.
06 - Stir in the cornstarch and water mixture into the simmering sauce. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes until sauce reaches desired thickness. Remove from heat.
07 - Transfer baked wings to a large bowl. Pour the honey garlic sauce over wings and toss thoroughly to coat evenly.
08 - Divide buttery rice among serving plates. Top with honey garlic chicken wings and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
