Crispy Whiskey Wings

I have made a lot of different chicken wing recipes. I've even won recipe contests with my chicken wings. But, for this event, I wanted to do something with whiskey in the sauce. It was a hit!

Ingredients (serves 6-8)
  • 4 to 5 pounds chicken wings, separated into drumettes and wings (tips discarded)
  • 1/4 C olive oil
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper

Whiskey Mustard Sauce
  • 1 C chicken stock
  • 3 T whiskey
  • 1 to 2 T minced garlic (depending on how garlicky you like things)
  • 2 t ground mustard 
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper


Procedure
Preheat the oven to 450° F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

In a large mixing bowl, toss the wings with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place wings - skin side up - on the prepared baking sheet. Roast them for 45 to 50 minutes. They will be cooked through and the skin nicely browned and crisped.

While the wings roast,whisk all of the remaining ingredients together to in a large skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook until thickened.


When the wings are done, add them to the sauce. and toss to coat, using clongs...or tongs. Serve hot.

  1. You had me at whiskey. How do you make wings better? Add booze, of course.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found."

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo.
