How to Make
-
Step 1: Position oven rack 4 inches below the broiler element and preheat the broiler.
-
Step 2: Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an ovenproof rack on the lined baking sheet.
-
Step 3: To make the glaze, in a small saucepan, bring the soda, lime juice, brown sugar, and chopped jalapenos to a boil over high heat.
-
Step 4: Decrease the heat to medium low and simmer until syrupy, about 30 minutes and keep warm, over low heat.
-
Step 5: To prepare wings, cut off wing tips (reserve tips to make chicken stock), and halve the wings at the joint.
-
Step 6: Place wing pieces in a large bowl and season with salt & pepper and pour half the glaze over the wings and toss to coat; keep remaining sauce warm over low heat.
-
Step 7: To broil the wings, place the glazed wings on the rack set on the baking sheet.
-
Step 8: Broil 10 minutes per side, brushing twice on each side with reserved glaze.
-
Step 9: Transfer to a warm platter, garnish with the sliced jalapeno and serve immediately.
