Honey Bourbon Wings Best Family Recipes – Each and every part of my own life is at maximum pace now: work, additional job, my online shop is hopping with Teacher Appreciation requests, enormous amounts of excellent pleasure site work, kid things, volunteer work, and travel planning for the remainder of the year (see you shortly Idaho, Montana, Hawaii, and assorted Washington Wine Country spots!) .
Has your week been just too mad? This is one weekend I am looking forward to! Weeks like this can only be fulfilled with a single meal: sticky chicken wings. They are baked or broiled, sweet or spicy. Wings always manage to create almost any meal a celebration. And this week deserves some party, buddies.
Today I’m sharing my recipe for Honey Bourbon Wings.
Honey bourbon is the magic combo that keeps on giving. I love to honey bourbon ALL THE THINGS — what out of Honey Bourbon Chocolate Truffles to Slow Cooker Honey Bourbon Meatballs. You bet I have some honey bourbon cocktails planned for the summer, too (cheers!) .
These baked chicken wings are slightly sweet and much more on the tacky side, versus the dripping-with-sauce, spicy Buffalo wings type of chicken wings. I really like that these honey bourbon chicken wings are baked. Baking wings gives them beautiful, yummy sticky skin whilst keeping superb tender meat that’s packed with flavours.
These wings can be served as a party appetizer and would be great for any tailgating party or holiday soiree. These may also be paired with a salad and a few rice to produce a delectable meal every night of the week.
Honey + Bourbon + Wings = the ultimate head-into-the-weekend BLISS. Eat up, and enjoy the weekend ahead!
