Bourbon Maple Chicken Wings
Chicken wings are my go-to late-night meal. There’s a place really close to me that’s open until 1 am! I prefer local chicken wing places because they get creative with flavors and the wings tend to be meatier.
I was super excited when I discovered National Chicken Wing Month! Although it’s in the month of July, I had to pair some of my favorite fall flavors with it–Maple & Bourbon!
Alyssa Raymond of WTHR joined me as we made this recipe to celebrate the month.
Bourbon Maple Chicken Wings
Ingredients
Bourbon Maple Chicken Wings
- 2 pounds of chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup bourbon
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Toss wings with oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Lay wings on a baking sheet, being sure they aren’t touching. Bake wings for 20 minutes. Flip wings over and bake for another 20 minutes.
- While wings are baking, combine all other ingredients in a small pot. Whisk ingredients until fully combined, then bring to a light boil. Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer on low until wings are done.
- Toss baked wings in the warm sauce. Place wings back on a baking sheet and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Remove wings from oven and enjoy!
