Grilled Chicken Wings w/ Brown Sugar & Soy Sauce
Serves 1 (but marinade can accommodate up to 12 chicken wings)
Ingredients
- 6 assorted chicken wings & drumsticks
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp paprika
How-to
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, maple syrup and paprika. Submerge chicken in the marinade, cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 8 hours to allow chicken to absorb flavors
- Heat a cleaned, seasoned grill to medium-high (for gas grill). Once proper temperature has been reached, place chicken skin-side down on grill. Cook each side 5 minutes with the grill cover closed
- Meanwhile, place a small saucepan over hottest part of the grill. Once pan is hot, add marinade. Close grill cover to bring to a rolling simmer. Heat marinade for 6-8 minutes
- Transfer chicken to the top rack of the grill. Close the grill cover and allow the chicken to rest 1-2 minutes to finish cooking. Remove saucepan (with potholders!) and transfer to serving dish to cool slightly while chicken finishes cooking
- Remove chicken from grill. Serve with heated marinade for dipping
