Chicken wings with orange-mustard glaze

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
2 Garlic clove(s)
Finely chopped
½ cup Yellow onion(s)
Finely chopped
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
½ cup Orange juice
(about 1 1/2 oranges)
1 cup Sugar
2 tablespoons Orange zest, finely grated
(about 2 oranges)
½ cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dry mustard
1 tablespoon Brown sugar
2 tablespoons Cider vinegar
½ tablespoon Salt
24 Chicken wings
(about 2 1/2 lb)

Directions

In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the oil. Add the garlic and onion and saute until translucent, about 5 min. Stir in the lemon juice, orange juice, sugar, orange zest, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, and salt.

Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until the sugar dissolves and the sauce begins to thicken to the consistency of warm honey, about 10 min. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.

Put the chicken wings in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Pour the cooled mixture over them, then turn the wings to make sure they are well coated. Let stand for 1 hour or more, turning from time to time.

(If allowed to marinate for more than 1 hour, cover and refrigerate.) Preheat oven to 350 F.

Remove the wings from the marinade with a slotted spoon, reserving the marinade, and spread them on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet.

Bake, basting occasionally with the marinade, until the wings are cooked through and slightly crispy, 20-30 min. Serve the wings hot or cold.
