Bourbon Apple Glazed Chicken Wings

These tangy sweet wings get the benefit of being braised then baked, no

frying involved!

Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 1 hour Level: Easy

Serves 4

2 lbs chicken wings, trimmed

1 cup Maker’s Mark Bourbon

1 can frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed (12 ounces)

1/2 cup soy sauce

¼ cup cider vinegar

¼ cup dark brown sugar

4 large cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper

1 tablespoon maple syrup

Directions:

1. Combine all of the ingredients in a medium pot. Bring to boil on high

heat and then reduce to a simmer for 30-40 minutes until the wings are

tender and the glaze has reduced, coating the wings.

2. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Remove the wings from the pot and transfer to

a parchment lined sheet tray. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the wings begin

to color and the glaze becomes shiny. Garnish with minced scallions and

apple. Serve immediately.
