Ingredients

  • 4-6 SERVINGS
  • Gooey chicken wings are sure to please a crowd, not to mention your wallet. The sweet and spicy glaze requires only 5 ingredients-apricot preserves work well, too.
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 (3-inch) piece peeled ginger, coarsely chopped
  • 2/3 cup peach or apricot preserves or jam
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot red-pepper flakes
  • 4 lb chicken wings, tips removed if desired

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat broiler.

With motor running, drop garlic into a food processor and finely chop.

Add ginger and finely chop.

Add preserves, soy sauce, water, and red-pepper flakes and pulse until sauce is combined.

Line bottom and sides of a large 4-sided sheet pan with foil and lightly oil foil.

Pat wings dry and put in sheet pan. Season with 3/4 tsp salt.

Pour sauce over wings and toss to coat, then spread in 1 layer.

Broil wings 4 to 6 inches from heat 5 minutes, then turn over and baste with sauce from pan.

Continue to broil, rotating pan and turning and basting 3 more times, until chicken is cooked through and browned in spots, 20 to 25 minutes.
