Honey Chicken Wings

Honey Chicken Wings

-->

4 pounds chicken wings

¼ Cup extra-virgin olive oil

Salt and freshly ground pepper

¼ Cup vinegar

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1/2 cup Maple syrup

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 scallions, slices

-->

Heat the broiler. In a bowl season the chicken wings with the olive oil, salt and pepper.  Broil for 45 minutes; turn periodically until the wings are crispy and well cooked in both sides. Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine the vinegar and crushed red pepper and boil for about 2 minutes. Cool the wings and combine the soy sauce and maple syrup (note: in the original recipe which I found in the Food and Wine magazine, the recipe call for honey but I prefer to use maple because it isn’t as heavy). Then cover the wings with the mixture. Transfer the wings to a dish and add the scallions and serve. I serve this dish with French fries. Let me know if you like this recipe and I’ll welcome comments.
