The spicy sauce gets an Asian influence from peanut butter. These fast and easy baked wings will be a hit at any party or celebration.

Prep Time: 25 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 50 chicken wings, wing tips removed (save for future soup stock, if desired)
  • 2 (12-ounce) bottles beer
  • 1 cup molasses
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup prepared mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
  • 1 to 2 lemons, sliced thin, for garnish

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a large roasting pan with foil.

Cut chicken wings in half at the joint and place wings evenly in roasting pan.

In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the beer, molasses, peanut butter, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and chili powder. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer over low heat about 15 minutes until sauce has reduced and thickened.

Pour sauce over chicken wings, tossing to coat each wing. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.

Place wings on a large platter, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Garnish with lemon slices and serve.

Yield: 15 to 20 servings

"I really liked this recipe, however the rest of my family didn't. I thought it had a strong peanut butter flavor and the chicken was moist. My sauce never thickened/reduced like the recipe said it would. The chicken was still pink in the middle after I pulled it out when the recipe said, so I had to cook it an additional 10 minutes."
