Yield: 6 - 8
Ingredients: 3 lb. chicken wings; 1/2 c. orange juice; 1 tbsp. vegetable oil; 1/2 tsp. chili powder; kosher salt; Freshly ground black pepper; 1 1/2 c. Sunkist soda; 1/2 c. hot sauce, such as Cholula or Frank's; 1/4 c. brown sugar; 1/4 c. butter; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tbsp. orange zest; 1 tsp. red pepper flakes

Step 1Preheat oven to 400°F.

Step 2In a large bowl, combine wings with orange juice, oil and chili powder and season with salt and pepper. Using tongs, toss to combine. Place onto a large baking sheet fitted with a cooling rack in a single layer. Roast 30-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden and crisp.
