How to Make Balsamic Soy Glazed Chicken Wings

1. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C). Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds.
2. Line two large, shallow baking pans with aluminum foil.
3. Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss wings with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Divide evenly between the prepared baking pans, ensuring wings are in a single layer.
4. Roast for 30-35 minutes, without turning, until golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
5. While wings roast, prepare the glaze: In a 1- to 1 ½-quart heavy saucepan, combine ½ cup balsamic vinegar, ¼ cup soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced to about ⅓ cup (12-14 minutes).
6. Remove glaze from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter until melted and smooth.
7. Remove roasted wings from the oven and let them rest in the pans for 1 minute.
8. Transfer wings to a large bowl using tongs.
9. Pour the balsamic glaze over the wings and toss gently to coat evenly.
10. Let the wings stand for 5 minutes to allow the glaze to set, then toss again before serving. Enjoy!
