Bourbon-Apricot Glazed Chicken Wings

CHICKEN WINGS

Ingredients

- 3 to 3 1/2 pounds chicken wings

- 1 tablespoon Butter

- 3/4 cup chopped onion

- 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh garlic

- 1/3 cup soy sauce

- 1/3 cup bourbon

- 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

- 1/4 cup dark molasses

- 1/4 cup honey

- 1 cup ketchup

- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

- 2 to 3 drops hot pepper sauce

- 1 (12-ounce) jar apricot preserves

Cooking Instructions:

Melt butter in 4-quart saucepan until sizzling; add onion and garlic. Cook over medium heat stirring often, until onion is translucent (4 to 5 minutes). Stir in all remaining sauce ingredients except apricot preserves and bourbon. Continue cooking until sauce just comes to a boil (3 to 6 minutes).

Reduce heat to low. Simmer stirring occasionally, 20 minutes. Cool completely about 15-20 minutes. Stir in preserves and bourbon.

Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees. Place wings on slightly greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Pour sauce over drummies; stir to coat. Bake for 50to 60 minutes, basting occasionally or until wings are tender and sauce has caramelized.
