Recipe and source notes

Midwestern Chicken Wings

6–8 servings Source yield

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 12 ounces apricot preserves (not preserved apricots, not apricot jelly)
  • 4–5 pounds chicken wings

Make it step by step

  1. Place all ingredients except chicken into a bowl and mix to make a marinade.
  2. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator with the marinade for at least 3 hours. A plastic bag sealed tight without much air or free space is believed to provide the best marinating. As with many marinating recipes, the longer the better.
  3. Clean and preheat grill to medium heat.
  4. Place wings on grill. Turn 1–4 times over the next 20 minutes.
  5. Safety note: Ensure a clean kitchen environment (hands, surfaces, etc), since this recipe requires marinating.
  6. Safety note: Never serve the marinade without first heating it to a boil.
