Jelly Glazed Wings for #BakingBloggers

I love being part of blogging groups, it makes me put on my thinking cap, try something new and different and I end up with delicious food.   

For Baking Bloggers this month, January,  Sue of Palatable Pastime challenged us to "bake up your favorite recipe using jams, jellies, preserves, etc".  

So I had fun.  I love wings, and am always trying out new and fun recipes.  I've got a goal in mind, a dimly remembered dish I enjoyed many years ago in a Chinese restaurant.  The sauce on the wings was so memorable, that well, here it is 15+ years later and I'm still trying to get it right.  

And having fun eating the results. 

Jelly Glazed Wings


I had a package of chicken wings in the freezer that I'd already baked, and frozen.  I like doing that as then I can make a quick meal, cause the wings are already cooked and tender.   And with this recipe, I didn't even bother thawing them first.

Jelly Glazed Wings

This time round I basically made two versions of the same dish, adding more stuff to get the taste to where I wanted it.  And this first version, was good, but missing, something.  Which it turned out, was the Thai Green Curry paste.  That made the final version, so good.

Both versions were good, but I think I like the second one best, so that's the one I'm sharing.   

I started with already baked wings - I bake them for about 20 minutes in a 350-375 degree oven, then turn the oven down to 325 and let them bake an additional 20-30 minutes.  They're baked, have a little color and are usually pretty tender.   I then freeze them in a single layer, and pull out a few at time for a meal. 

For these wings I used some jam I'd made before Christmas, using frozen strawberries and frozen cranberries I'd had hiding in my freezer.

  3. I never thought about doing curry paste with sweet but I am thinking about it now! Especially since the fridge always seems to be hiding a jar of paste, some mae ploy chili sauce and various jams. It's a fridge clean so def yes!

    1. I love playing with different sauces, combining them. I've gotten a few winners and a few losers along the way.

  4. Ooooooh, curry paste! I always have both red and green in the refrigerator. Love your tip about baking then freezing wings. I am definitely going to try that, along with your spicy sweet wings.

    1. If I'm going to have the oven on, I like to bake and freeze as much as possible to be able to make a meal or appetizer fast.

    1. In the 'old days', I always had a bag of baked wings in the freezer for last minute party invites. I've started doing it again, but just for me now.

  6. Love this sweet and spicy combination - I'm going to have to air fry some wings soon and try them in this!

    1. Let me know how it works. I'm still on the fence between a dedicated air fryer and a combo air fryer toaster oven.

  7. I don't even like wings all that much but I'd be willing to eat them for this flavor profile!

    1. Just slather the sauce on to your chicken part of choice. I'm betting this sauce would go well with drums, or thighs or even breasts.
