Slow Cooker Orange Glazed Chicken Wings

A simple twist on a delicious classic

Any recipe that has me toss all the ingredients into one pot and then gets devoured by my kids is an instant winner. These chicken wings are so simple to make and their sweet and tangy sauce will certainly win your crew over as well. My kids like their wings a bit crispy, so I'll usually toss them in a roasting pan under the broiler for 15 minutes before serving—but they're just as delicious right out of the pot.

The slow cooker in our house gets its share of a workout during the winter months, and it's important to keep in mind that there are plenty of great things you can do with it other than soups and stews. Reminiscent of honey garlic wings with a citric Asian twist, try these wings alongside Honey Garlic Ribs, stir-fried vegetables and rice to serve up your own homemade feast.
