Apple Bourbon Chicken Wings Recipes

APPLE BOURBON CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Line 15x10x1-inch pan with foil. Cut each chicken wing at joints to make 3 pieces; discard tip.
• In large bowl, toss chicken with 2 teaspoons of the oil, the salt and black pepper. Place chicken in pan. Bake uncovered 50 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, mix apple jelly, bourbon, brown sugar, garlic, red pepper and remaining 3 teaspoons oil. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat; reduce heat. Simmer 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Remove from heat.
• Remove chicken from oven. Drizzle half of the sauce over chicken; turn to coat with sauce.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes longer or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Serve chicken wings with remaining sauce.

ALL TIMES FIERY APPLE WINGS

Steps:

• Combine the ginger cider, sweet cider, salt and 1 cup water in an airtight container. Tie the juniper, peppercorns and bay leaves up in some cheesecloth to keep it together (this is called a sachet). Rinse the chicken wings, then add them to the container and store, refrigerated, overnight or for up to two days.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix together the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, oregano, and salt in a large bowl. Remove the wings from the brine and rinse thoroughly. Rub the wings with the spice mixture and place on a baking sheet. Bake until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached, 30 to 45 minutes. Serve with Fiery Apple Wing Sauce.
• Combine the hot sauce, cider, cider syrup, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne in a large saucepan. Cook for 30 to 45 minutes on medium heat.
• Melt the butter in a separate saucepan. Once the sauce base has cooked down slowly, stream the melted butter into the base while whisking thoroughly to emulsify.
