Ingredients

12 chicken wings
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/4 to 1/3 cup spicy deli mustard
1/2 cup orange juice
2-inch piece fresh gingeroot, peeled
2 tablespoons hot sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons honey

Procedure

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Preheat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Liberally season the chicken wingswith saltand black pepper. Once the skillet is hot, add the oiland then the wings in a single, even layer. Brown the wings for 3 minutes per side.

While the wings are browning, assemble the rest of the ingredients into the sauce. Bring up to a simmer over high heat, then lower the heat, and keep the sauce warm until the wings are done browning. Remove the gingerfrom the sauce.

After the wings brown, drain off some of the fat and drippings.

Pour the simmering sauce over the browned wings. Place the skillet in the oven and roast the wings for 20 minutes, flipping them once halfway through the cooking time.

Remove the wings from the oven. Toss the wings around in the sauce and serve.
