March brings to mind two things: Spring break and March Madness. Sadly, the first, and more exciting of the two is over, which means that March Madness has begun! The time when we all pretend we’ve been following College basketball and cheer on our “favourite” (or the best) team.

When I think about food to eat while watching sports chicken wings are the first thing that come to mind. They are probably one of the most loved foods to eat whilst watching a sporting event, whether it be the Superbowl, or say, the World Figure Skating Championships. In my opinion wings should always be on the table.

These are not your typical chicken wings, oh no, these are much better. And they’re baked, not fried! The sweet and spicy, tangy and smoky flavors are unusual and perfect. Rubbed with a simple spice rub before cooking enhances the flavours, of the wings, and the Chipotle pepper is what gives them that smoky flare which takes them over the edge. The molasses in the sauce gives them that finger-licking factor, and the Dijon mustard lends a tangy bite. I promise you, these wings will be a new favourite.

Yields 2-4 servings

These wings are smokey, sweet and spicy - perfect for game day!

    Wow! I'm really loving the theme of this blog http://www.livinglou.com/2011/03/lous-chicken-wings.html. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's hard to get that balance between usability and visual appeal. I must say you have done a fantastic job with this. In addition, the blog loads super quick for me on Internet explorer. Superb Blog!

    Just made this and I had to adjust some things due to not being able to get needed ingredients: I didn't use coriander, not chipotle anything, and instead of molasses and honey I just substituted 1/4 regular syrup. Regardless thought the wings turned out great, the sauce was surprisingly delicious and addicting. Great recipe!
