Baked Grapefruit and Garlic Glazed Chicken Wings

What you will need:

2 Lbs. Chicken wings, cut at the joint
2 Tbsp. Patricia and Paul Roasted Garlic Olive Oil
1/2 Tsp. Onion powder
1/4 Cup Patricia and Paul Grapefruit Balsamic Vinegar
1/4 Cup Ruby or pink Grapefruit juice
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
2 Garlic cloves, finely minced
Preparation:

1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with tin foil or parchment paper and top with a baking rack. Spray the rack with cooking spray.

2) Pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels. Place them on the prepared baking rack. Brush with the garlic olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with the onion powder, salt and pepper.

3) Place the chicken in the oven for about 50-55 minutes.

4) Meanwhile, on the stove in a small pot over medium heat, add the grapefruit juice, balsamic vinegar, garlic, brown sugar and a pinch of salt. Boil for about one minute. Take off the heat and let it rest. The mixture will get thicker and syrupy as it cools.

5) After the wings have baked for about 25 minutes, remove the wings from the oven and brush them with the sauce, flip them and sauce the other side. Put it back in the oven. Do this 3-5 more times cooking for another 30-35 minutes. (Total cooking time on the wings will be about 50-55 minutes.)

6) I like to finish the wings with a final brush of the glaze and then put them under the broiler to get golden brown and dark in spots. This will take about 2 minutes. Watch them so they don’t burn.

7) Sprinkle with a little salt and some freshly ground black pepper. Serve on a platter and garnish with some fresh wedges of cut grapefruit which is great squeezed on top of the wings. Enjoy.
