Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4-5 lbs chicken wings, trimmed, tips discarded
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 cup thawed frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 2 tablespoons minced chipotle in adobo, (seeds removed for less heat)
  • orange zest

Instruction

  • Place a rack in the upper third of the oven. Preheat to 450ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil. (You may need 2 baking sheets – if you do, place one rack in the upper third and one in the bottom third.) Place a cooling rack on the baking sheet and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Place the wings in a large bowl and add the vegetable oil. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss to combine. Place the wings in a single layer on the cooling rack.
  • Bake until the wings are crispy, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in another large bowl, combine the orange juice concentrate and chipotle in adobo. Transfer about 1/4 cup of the sauce into a separate, small bowl.
  • Place the cooked wings in the large bowl with the sauce and toss to coat. Return to the baking sheet in a single layer. Return to the oven and bake until the wings are shiny and cooked completely, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the wings to a platter and brush on the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with orange zest and serve warm.
