Coq au vin chicken wings

I burnt the pan on this one, so I recommend not going upstairs to ready books to your little critics while thinking that all is fine with an unsupervised pot on a hot stove!  It was salvaged and both Big Critic and I gobbled these up with veggie sticks and fresh corn on the cob.
  • Two LBS chicken wings
  • 1 cup red wine (saved from a time where you fell asleep before finishing the bottle)
  • one large leek
  • one garlic cloves (yes garlic is here!)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
Place the chicken wings in a large pot on the stove.  Puree all the rest of the ingredients and pour over the chicken wings.  Ensure all the wings are coated.  Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cover.  Once wings are completely cooked through remove them from the liquid and place on a cookie sheet.   Increase the heat on the sauce and decrease in volume until a thick syrup.  Spoon the syrup over the chicken wings and bake under the broiler until golden and bubbling.  Serve hot or not!
