A unique twist on classic chicken wings, featuring sweet and tangy pineapple flavors complemented by a spicy glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place chicken wings in a large bowl and pat dry with paper towels.
- Drizzle wings with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper, tossing until evenly coated.
- Arrange wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
