    ½ teaspoon Frontier Co-op Garlic Powder

     

    FOR THE ELDERBERRY SAUCE:

    ½ cup Frontier Co-op Cane Sugar

    ½ cup water

    ¼ cup Frontier Co-op Elderberries

    ½ cup ketchup

    ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

    1 teaspoon Frontier Co-op Garlic Powder

Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet tray with 1 or 2 wire racks, however many will fit.
    2. Lay chicken on paper towels and dry well, then place chicken in a bag. Add baking powder, salt and garlic powder and shake until well coated. Line wings on wire racks, skin side up. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until crisp and golden. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes.  
    3. For the sauce: In a pot, combine cane sugar, water and elderberries. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and let cook for 8 minutes. Remove from heat, strain out elderberries, and measure 1/3 cup of the elderberry simple syrup to use for the BBQ sauce. Store any remaining simple syrup for another use.
    4. Combine the 1/3 cup simple syrup with ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and spices. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and let cook for 20 minutes until slightly thickened. Toss chicken wings with sauce, and serve.
