Spicy Chicken Wings with Honey Mustard Jalapeno Sauce

Spicy Chicken Wings with Honey Mustard Jalapeno Sauce

I can’t think of anything more deserving of this delicious Jalapeno Sauce than chicken wings. The flavors of sweet and spicy combine to make these wings extraordinary.

 12 jalapeno peppers, stems removed

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 Tbsp. water

1/2 cup honey

1/4 cup rice wine vinegar

2 cups Dijon mustard

3/4 tsp. turmeric

10 whole chicken wings, tips removed

Place jalapenos in saucepan and add enough water to just cover peppers. Bring to boil over medium-high heat and continue boiling for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

Remove jalapenos from saucepan, reserving liquid. Add both sugars to liquid and return pan to heat. Bring mixture to boil, stirring to dissolve sugars. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Place jalapenos, sugar mixture, honey, vinegar, mustard and turmeric in blender or food processor. Blend until all ingredients are pureed.

Place chicken wings in large bowl and pour 1/2 cup pureed jalapeno mixture over wings, reserving remaining puree for dipping sauce.

Preheat oven to 400°. Place wings on lightly greased cookie sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until golden brown, turning several times during cooking.

Serve with dipping sauce on the side.

Coca-Cola Glazed Wings

2005 Golden Whisk Awards
(Our top 10 recipes of the year)

These nouveau Southern wings, created by Atlanta cooking teacher Virginia Willis for a story she wrote on wings for Super Bowl parties, are by no means traditional, but they are lip-smacking good. The sweetness of the Coke combined with the heat of the peppers is incredible.

Hands on time: 10 minutes  Total time: 30 minutes  Serves: 4

1 cup Coca-Cola Juice of 2 limes 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, firmly packed 3 jalapeno peppers, chopped 3 pounds chicken wings (12 to 14) Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 jalapeno peppers, sliced, for garnish

In a small saucepan over high heat, bring Coca-Cola, lime juice, brown sugar and chopped jalapeno peppers to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until syrupy, about 10 minutes.
Cut off the chicken wing tips, reserving for another use, and halve chicken wings at the joint. Place the halved wings in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour about half the sauce over the wings and toss to coat. Keep the remaining sauce warm in the small saucepan.
Place the oven rack 4 inches below the broiler. Heat the oven to broil 30 minutes before cooking. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place an ovenproof rack on the lined baking sheet.
Place the glazed wings on the prepared baking sheet. Transfer the wings to the oven and broil for 10 minutes per side, brushing with the reserved glaze every 5 minutes. Transfer to a heated platter, garnish with the sliced jalapeno peppers and serve immediately.
