Chicken Wings With Orange-Mustard Glaze recipe image

These chicken wings are coated in a vibrant orange-mustard glaze that offers a perfect balance of sweet citrus, sharp Dijon, and savory depth. The sauce simmers until thick and glossy, clinging to the crispy skin as the wings bake. It’s a crowd-pleasing dish that bridges the gap between game-day comfort food and elegant appetizers. Great for parties, potlucks, or a special weeknight dinner. The combination of fresh orange zest and juice brightens the rich chicken, while Worcestershire and dry mustard add complexity. Serve hot with celery sticks or cool them for a picnic-friendly snack.

Description

These chicken wings are coated in a vibrant orange-mustard glaze that offers a perfect balance of sweet citrus, sharp Dijon, and savory depth. The sauce simmers until thick and glossy, clinging to the crispy skin as the wings bake. It&# 226;ÂÂs a crowd-pleasing dish that bridges the gap between game-day comfort food and elegant appetizers.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the vegetable oil.
  3. Add the minced garlic and finely chopped yellow onion, sautéing until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the lemon juice, orange juice, granulated sugar, orange zest, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, brown sugar, cider vinegar, and salt.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens to the consistency of warm honey, about 10 minutes.
  6. Remove the sauce from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
  7. Place the chicken wings in a large glass or ceramic bowl.
  8. Pour the cooled sauce over the wings, turning them to ensure they are evenly coated.
  9. Let the wings marinate for at least 1 hour, turning occasionally. Cover and refrigerate if marinating longer.
  10. Remove the wings from the marinade using a slotted spoon, reserving the liquid.
  11. Spread the wings in a single layer on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet.
  12. Bake for 20-30 minutes, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the wings are cooked through and slightly crispy.
  13. Serve the wings hot or at room temperature.
