maple mustard moose wings

"Moose" wings are similar to "Buffalo" wings, only they are bigger and more Canadian. Made with chicken drumsticks, these "wings" are easy to eat like wings but big enough to satisfy any huge Moose-like appetite.

ingredients:

  20 chicken drumsticks (and thighs if you want)
  1 cup pure maple syrup
  3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  2 tablespoons Worcestershire
  2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  1 medium onion, minced
  ¾ teaspoon salt
  ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
 

directions:

1. Combine all ingredients (except the chicken) in a large bowl, zip lock bag or pan. Add chicken and marinate in the fridge overnight or for at least an hour at room temperature.

2. Remove chicken from marinade and pour excess marinade into a small saucepan. Set over medium-high heat and bring to the boil. Allow to cook until thickened and reduced by half.

3. Grill or roast "wings" until cooked through, basting with reduced marinade.

after-thoughts:

This marinade would be perfect for any form of chicken...I'm actually tempted to roast an entire chicken and baste it with this marinade. Yummmmm...
