Blueberry-Lemon Glazed Chicken Wings

Yield: 6 servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs chicken wingettes, or 3 lbs whole chicken wings separated into wingettes and drumsticks
  • 5 tablespoon olive oil, divided
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • ½ cup Smucker's Fruit & Honey Blueberry Lemon Fruit Spread
  • 2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon chipotle chili powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Line two sheet pans with tinfoil and liberally spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Place the chicken wingettes in a large plastic zip-top bag. Drizzle with 4 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Seal the bag and shake to coat the wings.
  3. Divide the wings between the sheet pans, leaving space between each wing. Bake for 40 minutes, turning the wings halfway through cooking.
  4. While the wings are cooking, make the glaze: heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and shallot to the pan and saute for a minute.
  5. Add the fruit spread, vinegar and chipotle chili powder. Stir until the fruit spread melts, increase the heat to medium and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce reduces and thickens.
  6. Once the wings are cooked, transfer them from the sheet pans to a large bowl. Pour the glaze over the wings and toss to coat. Return the wings to one of the sheet pans (they can crowd together) and cook another 5 minutes.
