Ingredients

3 pounds chicken wings (about 1 dozen)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 can (29 ounces) sliced peaches in extra-light syrup, undrained
1/2 cup whiskey
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon Louisiana-style hot sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
Minced chives, optional

Steps:

Pat chicken wings dry. Using a sharp knife, cut through the 2 wing joints; discard wing tips. Season wings with salt and pepper. Place in a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker., Pulse peaches with syrup in a food processor until pureed. Add the next 5 ingredients; pulse to combine. Pour over wings; toss to coat. Cook, covered, on low until chicken is tender, 4-6 hours. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into slow cooker. Cook, covered, on high until sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes. Preheat broiler. Remove wings to a 15x10x1-in. pan; arrange in a single layer. Broil wings 3-4 in. from heat until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. Brush with sauce before serving. Serve with remaining sauce and, if desired, chives.
