Zesty Chicken Wings

Recipe submitted by DaVita renal dietitian Lisa from Massachusetts.

Portions: 12
Serving size:  3 wings

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons all spice
• 2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 2 teaspoons hot sauce
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup lime juice
• 1/4 cup cranberry juice
• 7 pounds chicken wings

Preparation

1. Mix all ingredients except the chicken wings. Set aside 3/4 cup of marinade.
2. Place chicken wings into a container, or large re-sealable plastic bag. Pour the extra marinade over wings. 
3. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator 4 to 6 hours. 
4. Preheat oven to 350° F. 
5. Place chicken wings on a baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes. 
6. Meanwhile, in a small sauce pan, bring reserved 3/4 cup marinade to a boil. Reduce by 1/3 until it thickens slightly to a glaze (approximately 10 minutes).
7. After 20 minutes remove chicken from the oven, and brush wings with the glaze.
8. Raise oven temperature to 400° F and cook chicken wings about another 20 minutes, until done.

very tasty recipe, however the directions are a little confusing. When I set aside 1 cup of the marinade for basting I had none left for marinading the chicken. The recipe only makes about one cup total. Are there any typos on the measurements? Moderator: We have corrected the recipe to set aside 3/4 cup of the marinade. Thanks for letting us know about this mistake.
