G Eats: Wing Tips w BBQ Sauce

I have a favourite snack that some might consider weird.  I love to munch on crispy, crunchy, delectable chicken wing tips.  Baked until they are golden brown and easy to bite through, they pair well with a smokey bbq sauce for dipping.  These often discarded morsels may seem an odd choice, but I would pick them over a handful of chips any day of the week.

Wing tips are cheap.  You can find packages of them on their own at the grocery store.  You could also buy chicken wings and instead of throwing the part away, start a wing tip collection in the freezer for future snacking.  I've always been so content to snag the tips off my roast chickens that I had to give a full snack plate of them a shot.  This dish is really simple.  Very few ingredients but lots to love about it.  

Chicken Wing Tips
1 package of wing tips
Salt & pepper to taste
1 cup of your favourite bbq sauce

Preheat oven to 375.

Season your wing tips and lay them out in one layer on a baking sheet.  Place in oven and bake 30-40 minutes, flipping once, until golden brown and crispy.

Serve with bbq sauce for dipping.  

It may seem crazy but don't write them off until you try them. The flavour possibilities are endless.  Toss a dry rub on them before baking, experiment with different dipping sauces, whatever you like.

Enjoy!
