Ingredients

  • 900 grams chicken wings
  • 240 ml BBQ sauce
  • 120 ml Hennessy cognac
  • 50 grams brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season wings with salt, pepper, and paprika, then coat with olive oil. Arrange on a baking sheet and cook for 25 minutes until crispy.
  • While wings are cooking, combine BBQ sauce, Hennessy, brown sugar, soy sauce, and minced garlic in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until sauce thickens.
  • Remove wings from oven, toss in sauce, then return to oven for 5-7 minutes until sauce caramelizes.
  • Let wings rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set and achieve the perfect sticky texture.

Notes

For best results, confirm the sauce reaches the right consistency before coating the wings – it should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
