Chef Tom Colicchio's sour cherry BBQ wings: Try the recipe

Chef Tom Colicchio shares his secrets for making delicious chicken wings, plus a tasty recipe that you can prepare for family and friends at your next BBQ.

If you're on the hunt for an appetizer recipe or just love chicken wings, consider this dish from well-known Chef Tom Colicchio.

Colicchio, who has partnered up with Do Good Chicken, which upcycles surplus grocery food into animal feed, offers a yummy take on a finger-licking-good staple with this recipe for sour cherry BBQ wings.

When you're making chicken wings, Colicchio advised the importance of starting out with dry wings. 

"Dry them on paper towels and leave them uncovered in the fridge for up to two hours to fully dry out," he said, noting that drawing out the moisture helps to crisp the skin even more. 

If you don’t have time to dry out the wings for two hours, Colicchio shared that you can pat them dry with paper towels and toss them with a ¼-tablespoon of baking powder per pound of wings, along with the oil, salt and pepper before baking in the oven.

Another tip: "Place the wings in the oven on broil for the final two minutes to get extra crispy and the cherry glaze really sticky," Colicchio said.

"If you have leftover wings from the fridge, bake them at 450 °F to reheat through and get super crispy a second time."

As for that delectable cherry glaze, Colicchio noted that you can prep the sauce three days in advance and leave in a covered jar in the fridge. 

The flavors become incredibly robust. "Mixing some leftover cherry glaze with mayo or sour cream makes for an amazing dipping sauce," he added.
