Ingredients
2lbsWings and Drumettes, bone in and skin on
2teaspoonsSalt
1teaspoonGround Black Pepper
2TablespoonsButter
3clovesGarlic, minced
½cupApricot Jam or preserves
2TablespoonsLight Brown Sugar, packed
1TablespoonSoy Sauce
2teaspoonsSriracha Sauceor more to taste
Optional: Scallions, sliced
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400℉
Add the wings and drumettes skin side up to a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
To a small saucepan, add the butter to melt. Once melted, add the rest of the Apricot Sauce ingredients. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Turn off the heat and set aside until ready to toss with the chicken.
Once the chicken is done, the easiest way to coat with the sauce is to toss the wings and drumettes in a large bowl with the sauce. If you want to minimize cleanup, you can use a silicone brush to brush the sauce on and around the chicken pieces. Then place back into the oven for another 5-10 minutes until the Apricot sauce gets caramelized and dark. Serve with any extra sauce.
