Ingredients needed to make Honey Mustard Chicken Wings

3 lbs. chicken wings, trimmed
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Honey-Mustard Sauce

2 T. unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
3 T. honey
¼ c. Dijon mustard 
1 t. hot sauce (optional)

Note: This recipe goes together with
CREAMY RED POTATO SALAD WITH FRESH HERBS

Instructions for making Honey Mustard Chicken Wings

1. Place the top oven rack in the center position and preheat the oven to 425°F.  Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat™ baking mat. Set aside.
   
2. Add chicken wings to the baking sheet in a single layer, not touching or overcrowding. Season wings with salt and black pepper, to taste, before placing in the preheated oven. Bake until skin is crispy, approximately 45-50 minutes.
   
3. Meanwhile, add garlic and butter to a saucepan and heat over medium heat until garlic softens, approximately 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add honey and Dijon mustard. Stir to combine. Simmer for a few minutes, until the honey dissolves completely. Remove from heat and stir in hot sauce, if using. Set aside.
   
4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the wings to a large glass bowl. Pour the honey-mustard mixture on top and toss to combine.
   
5. Serve immediately or place coated wings on a large, rimmed baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and place under a hot broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until brown and bubbly. Enjoy!
