Ultimate Orange Glazed Chicken Wings

So the Big Game day is coming up (not so much for us Cowboy fans!) and perhaps you need some tasty treats for your Super Bowl fans. This one is a crowd pleaser!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup fresh orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons grated orange zest
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium works great)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
  • 4 pounds chicken wings


Directions:

  1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the orange juice with the orange zest, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat.
  3. Reserve 1/4 cup of the orange mixture. Place wings in bag and toss to coat. Marinade in your refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Place wings on two large baking sheets, arranging the wings in a single layer. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the wings over and baste them with the reserved orange mixture. Cook until just done, about 10 minutes longer.
