Sticky Sweet Chicken Wings

010112 WINGS 6

These are fast becoming my favorite wing.  I really love how sweet and sticky they are.  And they’re perfect when we’re craving wings but don’t have any Marie’s Blue Cheese Dressing in the house…which is the ONLY dressing I use when eating Buffalo Wings.

The first couple of times I made these I followed the recipe but all the flavor was in the skin and not the meat.  It also made a ton of liquid that needed to be drained off so I’ve since made a few changes by marinating the wings overnight and only using a portion of the marinade to cook them in.

Adapted from Betty White’s Chicken Wings

  • 3 pounds chicken wings
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Heat all ingredients, except chicken, in a sauce pan, stirring constantly, until brown sugar melts.

Remove pan from heat and let mixture cool.

Place chicken wings in a zipper bag and pour in mixture.  Squish around to coat wings evenly.  Place baggie in a bowl and set in fridge to marinate overnight.

Heat oven to 375°.

Lift wings out of baggie and place in baking dish, skin side up.  Pour only enough marinade to cover bottom half of wings.  Discard remaining marinade.

Bake 1 hour, 30 minutes or until tops of wings start to carmelize.

 

The perfect wing to hone your finger licking skills.
