Method

Prepare the Chicken Wings

1

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare the Wings

In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.

Bake the Wings

3

Arrange on Baking Sheet

Place the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4

Bake

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until they are crispy and cooked through, flipping halfway through.

Make the Whiskey Glaze

Combine Ingredients

In a saucepan, combine whiskey, brown sugar, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and ginger. Stir to combine.

Simmer the Glaze

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer for 10-15 minutes until slightly thickened.
