Pomegranate Glazed Chicken Wings
I am super excited to share this simple and delicious chicken wing recipe that is uniquely sweet and tangy and a fun change up to traditional buffalo wings.
I am a big chicken wing fan. My original recipe for baked wings is my go-to whenever I am craving a fun appetizer or to watch a big game. This recipe is basically the same except that I use pomegranate molasses instead of Frank’s Red Hot sauce, which is my favorite for Buffalo style wings.
I also use the opportunity to garnish with chopped pistachios, pomegranate arils, and parsley to really Persian-ify the recipe.
Hope you give these fun wings a try. Enjoy!
