Honey Mustard Chicken Wings
Author Notes: These wings are tangy, sweet, and sticky (finger-licking-good)! The sauce uses just a few ingredients and comes together in a few short minutes. (Not my notes. ) They were good and pretty easy. Kid friendly - 1 teaspoon of Sriracha will not make it spicy especially since there is a lot of honey and no pepper/salt in the recipe so you need something to balance out the sweet.
Serves 6
3 pounds chicken wings (drumettes and tips)
Salt and pepper
Cooking spray
2 tablespoons butter (sub butter flavored margarine or just any oil if you don't want to use margarine)
2/3 cup honey
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons bourbon
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 teaspoon Sriracha (add more for extra spice)
2 scallions, thinly sliced
For the Sauce:
In a medium-sized sauce pan, combine the butter, honey, mustard, bourbon, soy sauce, and Sriracha. Simmer for just 2 to 3 minutes so that all the flavors come together.
For The Wings:
Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line the bottom of a rimmed cookie sheet with foil for easy cleanup. Put a cooling rack (usually used for cakes and cookies) onto the cookie sheet. This allows the heat to circulate better and helps the wings to develop a crispy skin.
Lay the chicken wings out on the rack and season with a bit of salt and pepper and a quick spray of cooking oil. Put them into the oven, cook about 20 minutes, flip them over, and cook another 20 minutes.
Turn on the broiler and cook another 5 minutes on each side. This will give them a nice rich brown color and crispy skin. Keep an eye on them so that they don’t burn.
Return the oven to 400° F.
Brush the chicken wings with the sauce and put them back in the oven for about 5 to 8 minutes. Flip them over, brush with more sauce, and cook another 5 to 8 minutes. The chicken should be pulling away from the bones and the sauce should have a great glaze going. Serve garnished with scallions and additional sauce on the side.

You can leave it out. I have a version of this recipe also (there are many, although this looks especially yummy), and most don't have Bourbon.

Bourbon is just a type of whiskey so you could sub regular whiskey. Does your husband not drink at all? Or maybe you can borrow 2 tablespoons from a neighbor as it would be pretty common for a man to have a bottle of whiskey.
You could leave out but the liquor adds a nice note to what is otherwise a fairly standard recipe.
