Wings are the quintessential “roll up your sleeves” kind of food. Delicious and MESSY!
The problem is that not only are you messy, but typically frying up a batch of wings leaves your kitchen an utter disaster area. Normally, I do not shy away from making a dish that messes up my kitchen, but all the mess for wings just doesn’t seem like a good trade-off. And yet, I really want wings once in awhile. Oven wings is a perfect balance of wing-ed goodness. Tasty and minimal mess.
Wings are divided into 3 sections: tips (the small pointy end), flats (the flat middle sections) and drums/or drummettes (the drumstick piece attached to the breast). Tips are great for adding to stocks. Flat are great for stocks and wing recipes, and drums are perfect for wing recipes.
