orange sriracha wings

We've been getting a taste of spring so I broke out a warm weather recipe today. I actually was going to post this one a while back as a Super Bowl recipe but never got around to it. This one doesn't require much in the way of skill either so it's good for all you noobs. If you don't know what sriracha is it's a chile/garlic sauce. Sriracha is fairly spicy on but after mixed with everything in this recipe it's very mild. Basically it's like the Asian version of ranch dressing-it's good on everything.



I'm afraid the mixture isn't really much to look at. When you buy the marmalade look for a brand that doesn't have any or very little white pith on the orange zest. Too much of that white stuff will make the glaze bitter.



 
1 18oz jar of orange marmalade
1/3 C brown sugar
1/3 C sriracha
1/3 C honey

Mix the ingredients together and bring to a simmer in a small sauce pot. Let the mixture simmer for 10-15 minutes so the flavors get a chance to meld a little and to thicken it up some. Brush or toss the chicken in the warm glaze when it is just about done. There is a ton of sugar in this so you don't want to add it too soon or the sugars will burn.
