So it’s January and I can do one of two things… Put out healthy food or prepping for the Superbowl by figuring out my menu for the get together I am going to have. Well that’s an easy choice.. SUPERBOWL Menu!! lol That said today I am killing it with Bacon Wrapped Bourbon Chicken Wings. My son simply can’t get enough of these. I usually have to make a double serving because of him. One plater for him and one for everyone else. The best part is these are some of the easiest wings to make. The hardest part is making the glaze, and that is even super simple! So go ahead make these give them a try fall in love with them. So you have some thing awesome for your own Superbowl get together lol.

- 12 Chicken Wings, Whole
- 24 Bacon Slices
- 2 Tbsp. Butter
- 2 Tbsp. Onion, Diced
- 1 Tbsp. Ginger, Minced
- 1/2 Cup Bourbon
- 3/4 Cup Real Maple Syrup
- 1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
- 1 Tbsp. Hot Sauce
- 1 Tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
- Pepper
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Use knife to hack the tips off the chicken wings and discard. Pull the wing apart and slice through the excess skin connecting the drum and the flat to expose the bone. Find where the two bones meet and use your knife to slice through the intersection, creating two separate parts to the wing. You should have 24 pieces of chicken.
- Take a chicken piece and wrap a slice of raw bacon around it, using two toothpicks to secure the loose bacon ends. Repeat until all wings are wrapped in bacon. Place the wings on a wire rack on a baking sheet and put the sheet in the oven for an hour, flipping halfway through.
- While the wings are roasting, make the glaze. Heat the butter in a large sauce pot on medium heat, and when it's melted, throw in the shallot and ginger. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are translucent but not caramelized. Add in your Bourbon, black pepper, maple syrup, soy sauce, hot sauce, and apple cider vinegar and cook for 10 minutes on high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is reduced.
- Remove the wings from the oven, brush each wing with the glaze until completely coated. Put coated wings back in the oven for an additional 5 minutes to finish them off. Remove the toothpicks from the wings, and serve!
