I always start these by bringing the chicken to room temperature and drying the wings with paper towel. That will help them crisp up in the oven. If you have the time, you can keep them in the fridge (already dried) overnight for an even crispier skin. I then brush them with garlic olive oil and sprinkle them with onion powder, salt and pepper.
The glaze is a piece of cake to make. I mix the juice, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small pot then I boil it on the stove for one minute. When you let it cool for 10 minutes, the sauce will thicken slightly and become syrupy. Perfect for the chicken’s glaze.
Brush the wings with the glaze multiple times during the cook starting at 20 minutes. I’ll keep brushing every 5-7 minutes after that until the sauce is gone. It gives them a nice, sticky glaze!
For the final 2 minutes of cook time, I put them under the broiler to get them dark and golden in spots and to crisp up the skin even more. Finish with a sprinkle of salt and pepper and you are ready to dig in. I serve these on a platter with wedges of grapefruit which adds a nice, zesty kick at the end. Serve with lots of wet naps…perfect for game day. Enjoy!
