Balsamic & Guinness Chicken Wings

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Line the chicken wings on the baking sheet leaving a little space in between. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached.
4. While the wings are baking, make the sauce. Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until soft and translucent.
5. Add the balsamic, ¼ cup water, brown sugar, tomato paste, Worcestershire, and Guinness. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to simmer. Simmer until reduced by half.
6. Place a fine mesh strainer over a heat safe bowl. Pour the sauce into the strainer to catch the onions. Add the sauce back to the saucepan and continue to heat over low heat.
7. Combine 1 Tbsp water with 1 Tbsp cornstarch. Pour into the saucepan and stir to combine. Continue to heat the sauce until thickened. Keep warm until the wings are done baking.
8. Transfer the chicken wings to a bowl. Pour the sauce over the top and toss to coat.
9. Place the wings on a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve warm.
