Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray or oil.
Place the chicken wings in a large bowl, then drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the wings. Toss to coat evenly.
Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, flipping them over halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the soy sauce and brown sugar until fully dissolved. Let the mixture simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.
Once the wings are fully cooked and crispy, remove them from the oven. Transfer them to a large bowl and pour the warm brown sugar glaze over the wings. Toss gently to coat each wing evenly in the glaze.
Optional: Garnish with sliced scallions for a pop of color and additional flavor.
Serve the brown sugar wings immediately while warm. Enjoy!
