Sticky Chicken Wings

By Lorraine

Slow roasted sticky chicken wings with and orange tomato glaze are baked until tender and the glaze is thick. Serve as an appetizer or entrée.

Ummm, those tasty chicken wings. They come in a multitude of flavors. Spicy, sweet, barbecued, fried and the list goes on.  This, slow oven-roasted version produces yummy, sticky chicken wings with an orange tomato glaze. They are baked until tender and the glaze is thick and great served either as an appetizer or entree.

 

Editor’s note: This is an updated version of an article originally posted February 2011 with better photos and additional information.

 

Though we aren’t currently gathering at football tailgating events or perhaps trying to do some local sporting activities while social distancing, wings are always a hit. You might want to make them for your family as you watch TV or have a game night together. It is a pretty easy recipe!
 

Making the orange glaze for the chicken wings

Over medium high heat, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved.

Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

Note about cutting the chicken wings

As you can see, I did not cut up or remove the tips from the wings. There isn’t any meat on the tips and if you are particular about presentation, then go ahead and remove them. I have previously done so when making this recipe in the past. You can also purchase the wings cut into sections. These wings were large and meatier that other wings I have bought.

 

It is really easy to do this yourself. Here’s how.

Place the whole chicken wing on a cutting board. Remove the wing tip by cutting between the joint at the top end of the tip with a sharp knife or a pair of kitchen shears.

Section the remaining part of the wing by cutting between the joint. You will have three parts: the drumette, the wingette (often called a flat), and the tip. Discard the wing tip.

Baking and basting the chicken wings

 
Basting sticky chicken wings with orange glazeBake the wings for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, basting and turning the pieces over every now and then, until the chicken is crispy and sticky and the sauce is a thick glaze.

Ready to serve

Slow roasted sticky chicken wings with and orange tomato glaze are baked until tender and the glaze is thick. Make them as spicy as you like. Serve as an appetizer or entrĂ©e.It is classic to serve wings with cold, crunchy celery sticks and carrot sticks are good too. Bleu Cheese or Ranch dressing is great for dipping. A sprinkle of chopped scallions is nice for garnishing.
