This recipe feeds 4 as part of dinner or 8 appetizers, with leftovers. Time does not include 2 hours marinating time. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sour cream |
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped |

3/4 cup apricot preserves |
1/4 cup sriracha sauce |
1/4 cup honey |

5 lbs chicken wings (about 50 pieces) |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine sour cream, cilantro, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper.

3. Place wings in a large bowl.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together apricot preserves, sriracha sauce, honey, garlic, sesame oil, and salt; reserve 1/2 cup of the sauce to glaze wings during cooking and pour the rest over the chicken wings.
5. Toss wings well to coat in sauce, then cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
