Whether you’re rooting for the Denver Broncos, the Carolina Panthers, or Potato Cake during Super Bowl 50, you definitely don’t want to miss any of the action because you’re cooking in the kitchen. If you’re like us, your friends have all kinds of dietary restrictions: vegetarianism, lactose intolerance, Paleo-ism. There aren’t a lot of one-snack-fits-all options, which is why we like to make a whole spread. With that in mind, we found six different appetizers that cater to all kinds of tastes and can all be whipped up in under an hour. Best of all? Five of them bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, so you can cook a bunch of things simultaneously, while the last one goes in your slow cooker for less than an hour.
Teriyaki chicken wings
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 3 pounds chicken wings
Directions
- Whisk together the water, soy sauce, sugar, pineapple juice, vegetable oil, garlic, and ginger in a large glass or ceramic bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Add the chicken wings, coat with the marinade, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease baking dishes, and set aside.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess and place the chicken wings into the prepared baking dishes. Discard the remaining marinade. Bake the wings in the preheated oven until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is evenly browned, about 1 hour.
