Three-ingredient Chicken Wing Recipe Perfect Kick-Off Snack

Two weeks ago I went to an end-of-season softball party for my daughter’s softball team.  Everyone brought a little something, but the chicken wings really stuck out. Lori, the hostess with the mostest , made her famous wings.  This year, I asked her for the recipe.  When she told me the ingredients I almost fell off my stool! Chicken wings,  teriyaki sauce and brown sugar. That’s it.  How could three little ingredients make such a a tasty chicken wing? 

You cook these wings for 3 hours, turn them once halfway through, and keep the oven at 350 degrees throughout the cooking time.   At 350 degrees for 3 hours, you’d think they’d dry out, but instead they caramelize and become deliciously sweet and sticky.  So, if you’re planning on watching the Pats game this Sunday grab a few bags of frozen wings and the other two ingredients and in 3 hours you’ll have yourself some great wings.

Lori's Famous Chicken Wings

Ingredients:

Two 5 lb. bags frozen chicken wings

2 cups teriyaki sauce

2 cups brown sugar (light or dark)

Directions: 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place frozen chicken wings in baking dish (I used a large roasting pan with high sides because there is a lot of liquid).  Whisk together the teriyaki sauce and brown sugar until sugar dissolves. Pour teriyaki-sugar mixture over chicken wings.  Bake at 350 degrees for 1.5 hours.  Turn wings.  Continue baking for an additional 1.5 hours.  I covered the wings for the first 1.5 hours and took the foil off for the last 1.5 hours and they came out perfect!
