Baked Chicken Wings with Mustard Cream Sauce
Ingredients:
For the Chicken Wings:
- 2 lbs (about 1 kg) chicken wings, tips removed, and wings separated at the joint
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Mustard Cream Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken Wings:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased wire rack.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
- Make the Mustard Cream Sauce:
- While the wings are baking, prepare the mustard cream sauce.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is lightly golden and bubbly (this is your roux).
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, followed by the heavy cream. Continue whisking until the sauce is smooth and starts to thicken, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the Dijon mustard and whole grain mustard (if using), and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove from heat and keep warm.
- Serve the Chicken Wings:
- Once the wings are done, transfer them to a serving plate.
- Drizzle the mustard cream sauce over the wings or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
These wings are flavorful and perfect for any gathering or as a comforting meal. Enjoy!
