Bacon Wrapped Chicken Wings
Serving: 8-10 Wings
Total Time: 50 Minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 lb of Chicken Wings (8-10 pieces)
- 1 lb of Thick Cut Bacon
- 1 bottle of Mazola Corn Oil (1.18 L)
- 2 tablespoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 oz of your favourite BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 1 bunch of Chives
- 1 oz Sesame Seeds
- 1 oz of Honey (More or less depending how sweet you like it)
Directions:
TO COOK THE CHICKEN WINGS:
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine paprika, garlic powder, and salt & pepper in a mixing bowl.
3. Fully coat each wing with the seasoning mix and place it on the baking sheet.
4. Bake for 25 minutes at 420°F. Then turn the wings over and bake for another 15
FOR THE SAUCE:
1. Heat saucepan on low-medium heat.
2. Add tbsp of butter, watching to ensure it does not burn.
3. Add BBQ Sauce.
4. Add Honey.
5. Bring sauce to a simmer for 3 min.
6. Let cool.
TO WRAP THE CHICKEN WINGS WITH BACON:
1. When wings are cool enough to handle, take one strip and wrap it around a wing, and pin it with a toothpick. This will prevent it from unraveling during the frying process.
2. Pour the bottle of Mazola in a pot and heat up to 350 degrees. Temp with probe thermometer.
3. Add wings carefully into oil with a pair of tongs and cook 2-3 minutes.
TO SAUCE IT UP:
1. In a mixing bowl add fully cooked wings with sauce from the pan. Mix until fully coated.
2. Add wings to a plate and garnish with sesame seeds and chives.
3. Enjoy!
