Crispy Baked Orange Chicken Wings

• servings: 4 servings
• total time: 1 hour

Ingredients

For the chicken

2 ½ lbs chicken wings, tips removed, drumettes and flats separated

1 Tablespoon vegetable oil

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

For the sauce

1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil

1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger

2 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes, or more to taste

3/4 cup orange marmalade

1/4 cup hoisin sauce

Directions

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Rinse wings and drumettes and pat dry. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with vegetable oil, salt and pepper. Position wings on baking racks in a single layer ensuring that wings aren't touching.

Bake, rotating pan half-way through, until fully cooked, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove wings from oven and transfer to a large bowl.

Add the sesame oil and olive oil to a small saucepot over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes until golden brown.

Add the red pepper flakes, orange marmalade and hoisin sauce, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.

Pour the orange sauce over the wings, tossing to thoroughly coat, and serve immediately.

Kelly's Notes:

If wings aren't your thing, you can just as easily use this glaze atop chicken breasts and tenders, as well as pork and shrimp.
