Oh my, these wings are like no other wing around. I got to thinking about how I often stuff herbs under the skin of chicken breasts and so why not a wing! The flavors really burst on many levels! —JennT1981
Ingredients
-
2 1/2 pounds
chicken wings
-
2
cloves, garlic, minced and pasted
-
1/3 cup
fresh basil,
-
1 tablespoon
olive oil
-
1/4 cup
fresh orange juice
-
1/4 cup
honey
-
1 teaspoon
balsamic vinegar
-
1 pinch
salt
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
-
In a food processor combine garlic and basil and pulse until resembles a paste.
-
Begin stuffing the mixture evenly under the skin of each wing and place on a greased baking sheet.
-
Bake 45 to 55 minutes, until crisp and juices run clear.
-
In the meantime combine olive oil, orange juice, honey, balsamic vinegar and salt in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil.
-
Reduce heat to low and let simmer for flavors to meld and sauce reduces slightly.
-
Using a pastry brush, glaze wings 15 minutes into cooking time and each 15 minutes after that until done.
-
Watch wings carefully to prevent them from burning.
