Sticky Maple Pepper Glazed Chicken Wings

Name: Sticky Maple Pepper Glazed Chicken Wings
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 40 min
Total time: 50 min
Yield: About 40 pieces.
Ingredients: 4 pounds chicken wings; 1/4 cup all-purpose flour; 1/2 tablespoon baking powder; 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper; 1 teaspoon kosher salt; 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder; GLAZE:; 2/3 cup maple syrup; 2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper; 2 teaspoons soy sauce; 1 garlic clove, minced; Chopped green onions, optional

This is one of my favorite appetizers to make over the holidays! The coarse ground pepper cuts the sweetness of the maple syrup by adding just the right amount of heat. These chicken wings are best fresh out of the oven (they are nice and crispy), but they are also delicious if made ahead and kept warm in a slow cooker. —Shannon Dobos, Calgary, Alberta

Ingredients

4 pounds chicken wings
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
GLAZE:
2/3 cup maple syrup
2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
Chopped green onions, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 425°. Line two 15x10x1-in. baking pans with foil and coat with cooking spray; set aside.
Using a sharp knife, cut through the 2 wing joints; discard wing tips. In a shallow bowl, combine flour, baking powder, pepper, salt and garlic powder. Add wing pieces, a few pieces at a time, and toss to coat; shake off excess.
Place on prepared baking sheets. Bake until juices run clear, 40-50 minutes, turning once. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine glaze ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until thickened, 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Drizzle over wings; toss to coat. If desired, top with chopped green onions.

These disappeared quickly at our Christmas Eve party. I thought they could use a little more glaze but everyone devoured them. Thumbs up here.
