Cayenne Maple Chicken Wings Recipe
A simple reduction of maple syrup, butter and cayenne is all it takes to put a delicious sweet hot glaze on a batch of chicken wings. The sweet and heat compliment each other perfectly.
Cayenne Maple Chicken Wings
I got the recipe for my Cayenne Maple Chicken Wings from The Wolfe Pit where they are called Triple ‘S’ Wings – Spicy, Sweet & Sticky. This combination of Maple Syrup and Cayenne Pepper is all that and more.
Be sure to offer a nice creamy dipping sauce to cool the heat and add to the richness of flavors.
I have adapted the original recipe just slightly to make it easy to use with any style wings you make.
I made broiled wings and they were delicious.
