Bourbon Glazed Chicken Wings

Ingredients

• 3 pounds chicken wings
• 1 cup bourbon
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup soy sauce
• 4 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 stalks green onions
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the bourbon, brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is well combined.

3. 3

   Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for more flavor).

4. 4

   After marinating, remove the wings from the marinade and let the excess drip off. Reserve the marinade for later use.

5. 5

   Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken wings and toss to coat. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack.

6. 6

   Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.

7. 7

   While the wings are baking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.

8. 8

   Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and toss them in the thickened bourbon glaze until well coated.

9. 9

   Transfer the glazed wings to a serving platter. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

    Serve hot and enjoy your delicious bourbon glazed chicken wings!
