Baked Spicy BBQ Adobo Chicken Wings
Baked Spicy BBQ Adobo Chicken Wings
"With fall we’re getting ready to tailgate, have family get-togethers, and celebrate the many fall birthdays in our family. We all love the flavors of traditional Mexican food but we decided to meld them with appetizers to get party-friendly foods with the flavor we love. These Baked Spicy BBQ Adobo Chicken Wings are a reference to Buffalo Chicken Wings with the kick of adobo sauce. Served with Knorr’s Cream Chipotle Dip Recipe, they’re a hit at every family gathering!"
NotesWe used this method of wing cooking: The baking soda dries out the skin to help get a crispy baked wing. Baking on low heat for 30 minutes renders out the fat and then turning the oven up crisps up the skin. Using a rack over the cookie sheet allows air to circulate all around the wing so that the underside doesn’t get soggy from sitting in the dripping fat.
