Orange Chicken Wings

No ratings yet
Is there anything better than finger licking good wings?  How about Orange Chicken Wings that are crispy and gooey but also have a fiery bite? These Orange Chicken Wings check all the boxes.  They are made with a few simple ingredients and baked to perfection!  I used St. Dalfour Orange Marmalade to keep them Whole30 but you can easily swap out peach or apricot jam as well.  Warning...there will not be any leftovers!
