BBQ Chicken Wings

BBQ Chicken Wings

EverydayCookedSweetened

BBQ chicken wings are a popular appetizer consisting of fried or baked chicken wings coated in a sweetened, tomato-based barbecue sauce. The cooking process caramelizes the sauce's sugars, creating a sticky glaze that balances smoky, tangy, and sweet flavors while adding significant amounts of added sugars and sodium. Though providing substantial protein from the chicken, the nutritional profile varies considerably based on sauce recipes and frying methods.
