Peachy Barbecue Chicken Wings

Peachy Barbecue Chicken Wings

Peachy Barbecue Chicken Wings are one of our favorite summer appetizers. I love these wings for several reasons. First, of all, I love that this recipe uses the juicy and delicious summer peaches. Secondly, I really like that these wings bake in the oven, and that I don’t have to watch them at all. Thirdly, I like that this recipe uses ingredients that I always have in the house. And, that means that this is an inexpensive recipe for me to prepare. Finally, I absolutely love these crispy wings, the peachy barbecue sauce, and the lemon aioli.

The Equipment I Used

  • A Large Baking Sheet- You’ll need this to bake your wings on.
  • A Saucepan- I used a three quart saucepan to simmer my barbecue sauce.

The Ingredients Needed for Peachy Barbecue Chicken Wings

  • A Peach- You’ll need one fresh peach to make this recipe. You don’t need to peel it.
  • Chicken Wings- Buy the wings that are separated into flats and drums. Be sure and get them nice and dry so that they crisp up in the oven.
  • Fresh Ginger Root- You can find this in the produce department of your market. You could also use a quarter teaspoon of ginger powder instead. Or, you can completely omit the ginger. I just made this in our vacation house and just omitted the ginger. I just didn’t want to bother searching for it a strange supermarket.
  • Ketchup- I always use Heinz Organic.
  • Mayonnaise- Hellman’s is the brand I always use.
  • Lemon Juice- Be sure and use fresh lemon juice.

How I Made My Wings

  • First, I baked the wings. Just be sure and grease the foil really well, or the wings will stick horribly to the foil.
  • Next, I made the barbecue sauce. Of course, you want to simmer it on low heat so that it doesn’t burn. I also mixed up the Aioli.
  • Finally, I used a pastry brush to paint the wings with the sauce.
