Apricot Glazed Sriracha Wings

Total Time: 49 hrs Preparation Time: 48 hrs Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 2 -3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 cup apricot jam
• 1/3-1/2 cup cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup dry wine (optional)
• 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
• 5 large garlic cloves, minced
• 3 -4 lbs chicken wings, rinsed
• lemon, halves

Recipe

• 1 combine all ingredients, except the wings, in a bowl. taste for sweet/hot/sour/salt balance and adjust to your preference. it should be very strong, if not add another tablespoon of sriracha.
• 2 place wings in heavy plastic bag(s) and cover with the marinade.
• 3 seal and refrigerate for two days, turning the bag(s) occasionally to ensure even marinating. (yes, this requires some planning but it’s worth it.).
• 4 when ready to cook, preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• 5 spread foil over two shallow pans and top with racks (cake or roasting racks work well).
• 6 spread wings out on racks, saving their marinade.
• 7 roast for 1 3/4 hours in the middle or bottom of the oven, switching pans occasionally.
• 8 every so often, turn wings, basting with marinade and piercing with a fork during the first hour of roasting.
• 9 wings are done when they can be easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. if they are not crisp enough for you, flip on the broiler or turn the oven to 500 degrees for a few minutes. watch carefully - they can easily burn. serve hot, warm or cold. squeeze fresh lemon over them at the table.
