Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Heinz 57® Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Prepared Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 package frozen chicken wing sections, thawed, or about 20 pieces

Directions:
1. Preheat broiler to high heat. Place oven rack at 9 to 10 inches from heat source. Coat a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Whisk together 57 Sauce, vinaigrette and garlic until well mixed. Reserve half of mixture in a separate bowl for dipping.

Continue broiling for 10 to 12 minutes, or until cooked through, turning every 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with reserved dipping sauce along with the Blue Cheese Dip on the side.

TIP: Always cook chicken until no longer pink or to an internal temperature of 165° F.

Brush sauce mixture liberally on both sides of wings and grill for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until cooked through (no longer pink or an internal temperature of 165°F), turning frequently. Serve with reserved dipping sauce.

TIP: For a spicier variation, add 1 to 2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes to sauce mixture.

  • 1 tablespoon Heinz red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 garlic clove- minced fine
