Sweet Mustard Chicken Wings

So it's football season, and we've been testing some wing recipes for variety.  My youngest is NOT a chicken lover.  As soon as he finds out we're having chicken, he announces how tired he is and that he just wants to go to bed (where did this kid come from?!).  However, he LOVED these wings tonight!  I guarantee, you can't eat just one....

Ingredients:
  • 4 lb chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded
  • salt to taste
  • 3 TBS Dijon mustard
  • 3 TBS prepared yellow mustard
  • 1/4 c honey
  • 1 TBS cider vinegar
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tsp hot pepper sauce
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 450. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; coat the aluminum foil with cooking spray.
  2. Arrange the wings on the prepared baking sheet so they do not touch; season with salt.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until browned and crispy on top, about 20 minutes. Flip the wings with tongs and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes more.
  4. Stir together the Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, honey, cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and hot sauce in large mixing bowl. Add the wings to the bowl and toss with a spatula to coat evenly. Allow to sit for about five minutes and toss again to re-coat. Transfer to a plate to serve.
