How to cook deliciously - Microwave BBQ Chicken Wings

1. Stage

Make the BBQ sauce: Stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, brown mustard, garlic powder, cumin, and salt in a small microwave-safe bowl. Cover the bowl with a wet paper towel and microwave on high until thickened, 7 to 8 minutes, stirring halfway through and re-covering. Set the BBQ sauce aside. You can reuse the paper towel to cook the wings.

2. Stage

Cook the wings: Place the chicken wings in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Cover the bowl with the same paper towel and microwave on high until the wings are almost cooked through, about 6 minutes. Discard paper towel. Drain the wings in a colander set in the sink. Then pat the wings dry with paper towels, and return them into the bowl.

3. Stage

Coat the wings and finish cooking: Add about 1/2 cup BBQ sauce to the wings and toss to evenly coat. Microwave on high, uncovered, until sauce glazes the wings, about 4 minutes, stirring halfway through. We developed and tested the recipe in a 1,250-watt microwave. You may need to cook the wings for longer, in 1-minute intervals, depending on the power of your microwave. The best way to check to make sure the chicken is cooked through is to measure its temperature with an instant read thermometer—you’re looking for at least 165°F. Serve with the remaining 1/4 cup BBQ sauce on the side for dipping. Did you love the recipe? Leave us stars below!
