We’ve mentioned before that since Lindsey moved out, we get together for “blog dinner nights” and cook many different recipes. Did we mention NONE ever go together? These chicken wings were made on one of those nights, along with crab rangoon bites and Santa Fe chicken. Don’t judge us.
Baked Brown Sugar Wings with Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce | Damn Delicious
Two things stand out about these wings: the sauce was DELICIOUS and a certain someone who doesn’t usually like to dip his wings spooned this sauce on his plate to double and triple dip. Even if you aren’t a roasted red pepper fan (we were hesitant to waste money and ingredients on this recipe), this was surprisingly delicious and an incredibly creamy dipping sauce that everyone will love.
These 3 ingredients will make the creamiest dipping sauce!
Chop the roasted red peppers into small pieces. This will make it easier to emulsify in the food processor.
In a large bowl, combine wings and seasonings. Place wings onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
Using metal tongs, turn the wings over halfway through the cooking time.
When the wings are golden brown and seem to be “pulling away from the bone”, they are ready!
Serve wings immediately with dipping sauce! Then prepare to eat the sauce with a spoon. Yes, it’s that good.
