The Spicy Olive’s Blackberry Ginger Chicken Wings

Ingredients
4 pounds chicken “party” wings
2 tablespoons The Spicy Olive’s Garlic Olive Oil (or olive oil of your choice)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup The Spicy Olive’s  Blackberry Ginger Balsamic Vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce

Directions
Combine soy sauce, balsamic, pepper, olive oil and wings in a large, zip-top bag. Close bag and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat.

Remove the chicken wings from the marinade and pat dry. Cook the wings on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until the chicken is well browned and no longer pink, 25 to 30 minutes.

 

Place the reserved marinade in a small sauce pot set over medium-low heat, and gently simmer until reduced by half, approximately 5 minutes.

Place grilled wings in a large bowl. Drizzle with reduced balsamic marinade and toss to coat well.

Wine Tasting for July 12, 13 and 14, 2018

The Wine Cellar has some great summer wines to taste this weekend!

Montinore Estate, Muller-Thurgau, Oregon: This 2014 vintage is made from the Muller Thurgau grape which is a lesser known variety of Riesling. This playful wine is a dry/semi sweet “Riesling”  with great mineral and lots of peach, apple, pineapple fruit on the nose. A wonderful wine to enjoy on a summer day!

Gerard Bertrand Perles de Sauvignon Blanc, France: This Sauvignon Blanc is characterized by its attractive citrus and a touch of menthol. The aging in oak barrels gives the wine structure and length on the mouth. This wine is in an exquisite bottle, with a blue glass stopper that evokes the Mediterranean coast and a glass pearl necklace to adorn this delicious wine.

Gran Vega Privado, Granacha (Campo de Borja) Spain:  A generous, easy drinking Garnacha! Fresh berry fruit without sweetness makes this a great, easy to drink summer red.

Freelander Cabernet Sauvignon, 2016 California: Aged in American French oak, this red wine shows lush mouth feel and balance and complexity. Rich in blackberry and cassis flavors, with ripe sweet tannins and a gentle finish. This gentle finish makes it a nice Cab for summer steak dinners.
