Garlicky Brown Sugar & Bacon Oven-Roasted Chicken Wings

Chicken wings just may be my new favorite speedy meal idea! One the night we ate these for dinner, I actually made 2 different flavors and served them together. I was trying to hedge my bets I guess – thinking, “If they don’t like one, surely they will like the other!”.
Well, they loved both! ((I will share my Asian variety soon)) Both we super easy to make and talk about an inexpensive way to feed a family of six! We ate three pounds of organic wings and it cost us about $9.
For these garlicky wings, I used:
- 1½ pounds of chicken wings
- 2 T of my favorite Made in Oklahoma mustard
- 3 T finely diced sweet onion
- 2 T fresh squeezed lemon juice
- ½ c brown sugar
- 4 strips thick-cut apples smoked bacon ((chopped))
- 2 T of a dried garlic herb seasoning ((more or less to taste))
I combined all of the ingredients & let then sit for 2 hours before roasting.
An important tip: turn the wings and sauce out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. It will make clean-up so much easier!
Bake at 425° for about 20-25 minutes until crisp. ((Oh and if you garnish with fresh chopped chives, it looks real purdy!))
Oh, my mouth is watering. They are even better than they look!
Next time, I will have to make a double batch!
