Strawberry Wet Wings
Ingredients
- For the Wings:
- 2 lbs chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- For the Strawberry Sauce:
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)
- For Garnish:
- Fresh chopped cilantro or parsley
- Sliced green onions
Instructions
- Prepare the Wings:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Season them with salt and black pepper, then toss with olive oil to coat evenly.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
- Make the Strawberry Sauce:
- While the wings are baking, prepare the strawberry sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, honey, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using).
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries break down and the sauce thickens slightly, about 10-15 minutes.
- Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Coat the Wings:
- Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- In a large bowl, toss the wings with the strawberry sauce until they are well-coated.
- Serve:
- Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro or parsley and sliced green onions.
Enjoy your Strawberry Wet Wings! They’re a delightful blend of sweet and savory flavors, perfect for a unique appetizer or main dish.
