  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup pineapple cowboy candy (pickled jalapeños)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels.
  2. In a bowl, mix pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, and chopped jalapeños to create the marinade.
  3. Marinate the wings for at least 30 minutes (overnight for best results).
  4. Arrange marinated wings on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. Simmer reserved marinade with pineapple cowboy candy in a saucepan for 5-7 minutes until thickened.
  6. Brush baked wings with glaze during the last 5 minutes of baking; garnish with cilantro before serving.

Keywords: For an extra kick, add cayenne pepper or your favorite hot sauce to the marinade. Substitute mango juice for pineapple juice for a tropical twist. Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and reheated in the oven at 350°F (175°C).
