HOT AND SWEET CHICKEN WINGS



Hot and Sweet Chicken Wings image

Yes, another wings recipe. This was an experiment trying to find just the right balance of hot and sweet, as I love very hot and spicy and hubby does not. It's basically a combination of several recipes I've seen on this site and others. I did take a 5 pd tray of these to office Christmas party and was delighted their were no leftovers. Frozen drumettes or wing can be used, but i prefer the whole fresh wings.

Tips:

  • Use a Combination of Spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and seasonings to create your own unique flavor profile. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Marinate the Wings: Marinating the chicken wings in a flavorful mixture of spices, herbs, and liquids will help them absorb more flavor and stay moist during cooking.
  • Cook the Wings Properly: To ensure that the chicken wings are cooked through, bake them in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 45 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Make the Sweet Heat Sauce: While the wings are baking, prepare the sweet heat sauce by combining ketchup, brown sugar, honey, apple cider vinegar, and sriracha sauce in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it thickens slightly.
  • Glaze the Wings: Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and brush them with the sweet heat sauce. Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and the wings are crispy.
