Hot, Sweet, And Sticky Chicken Wings

The perfect snack to whet that picnic appetite, this one covers all the taste bud zones.

Type: Chicken, Poultry
Courses: Starters and appetizers
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

  Marinade
1/2 cup 118mlKetchup
1/4 cup 59mlBalsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons 30mlDark brown sugar
4 teaspoons 20mlGranulated garlic
4 teaspoons 20mlWorcestershire sauce
3 teaspoons 15mlTabasco sauce
2 teaspoons 10mlDijon mustard
2 teaspoons 10mlPaprika
2 teaspoons 10mlChili powder
  The Wings
20   Chicken wings - wing tips removed
  Extra-virgin olive oil - as needed

Recipe Instructions

To make the Marinade: In a medium bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients.

Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade, place in a bowl, and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, turning occasionally.

Remove the wings from the bag and discard the marinade. Lightly brush or spray the wings with olive oil. Sear over Direct Medium heat until well marked, 4 to 6 minutes, turning once halfway through searing time. Continue grilling over Indirect Medium heat until the meat is no longer pink at the bone, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm.

This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.

Wine Recommendation: This fun dish incorporates the spirit of backyard grilling -- simple finger foods whose flavors are kicked up by searing heat, sweetness, and spice -- so it needs an elegant counterpoint. Refresh that spirit and cleanse your palate with the bubbles of a sparkling Cava from Spain.

Beer Recommendation: India Pale Ale, with its hoppy bitterness, is just the contrast you need to both cleanse the palate and unify the complex and competing flavors of this dish. Cheers!
