Balsamic Chicken Wings
This recipe for Balsamic Chicken Wings is a quick fix for dinner from Giada De Laurentiis. Something I have made a few times.
I love when you can marinade something earlier in the day and then just toss it in the oven and voila, dinner is at hand!!!
These drumettes are sticky, sweet, and savory. I have also made this recipe with the larger chicken thighs, and it is very good too. Serve up a little rice and a nice big green salad and you will have dinner on the table in no time. ENJOY!!

Wings or thighs, they both sound terrific! This would be perfect football watching food!
