Sweet & Spicy Chicken Wings Recipe

By Craig993
Total Time: 1 hour | Active Time: | Makes: 1-2 servings

I got the basic recipe about 15 years ago from an article on Superbowl snacks. I’ve tweaked it a little. This recipe is for 12-14 drummettes (or 6-7 wings w/ tips removed and cut at joint) which is the standard size Foster Farms package. This is about 2 servings or 1 really big serving.

INGREDIENTS
  • 1/2 stick melted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons hot sauce (e.g. Tapatio)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayene pepper
  • 12-14 chicken wing drummettes (6-7 wings w/ tips removed and cut at joint)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Combine melted butter, brown sugar, hot sauce, soy sause, garlic powder and cayene pepper. Mix well to syrup-like consistency.
  3. Thoroughly coat chicken wings and place in baking pan w/ excess marinade.
  4. Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes, turning wings half way through.
  5. Broil for 2-3 minutes each side to crisp skin.
  6. Serve w/ ranch or bleu cheese dressing and celery sticks.

    This is definitely a 5 star recipe. I added some honey and a little more brown sugar and It was so yummy. It will be my "go to" for all family get together's. I am also going to try it for ribs. Thank you

  • UNBELIEVABLE! I got a turkey fryer for Christmas. My fiancees daughter really wanted sweet and spicy chicken wings on New Years. So I printed this off and went to it! The only thing I did different was to fry the wings instead of baking or grilling them. They turned out AWESOME! My fiancee absolutely loved them too and she usually isn't much on chicken wings. Thanks for the great recipe!

  • I just made these and they are really good! Crispy, tasty and the perfect combo of sweet and spicy! Next time I will definitely add more heat though because I like mine hot! all in all, a great recipe and I will definitely make them again!
