Black pepper
For the Sauce:
3/4 c dark brown sugar
2/3 c tomato paste
1 1/2 c Coca-Cola
5 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp kosher salt
1/3 c red pepper, hot sauce (like cayenne or tabasco pepper sauce)

Directions:
For the Wings:
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 200 degrees C or 400 degrees F.
Lay a metal rack over two baking sheets.
Line the inside of another baking sheet with foil.
Use paper towels to pat dry the chicken wings. Put them into a large bowl followed by olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss the chicken to coat. Transfer them onto the baking sheets and arrange them in a single layer.
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake the chicken wings for about 45 minutes to 1 hour or until done. You can broil them if you want.
For the Sauce:
Place a saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to high.
Stir in the tomato paste, brown sugar, garlic, and Coca-Cola. Stir everything until well blended and allow the mixture to boil.
Reduce the heat to low, then whisk and simmer the sauce for about 5 to 10 minutes. Add hot sauce and salt if needed.
Remove the pan from the heat.
Remove the chicken wings from the oven, then toss them in the sauce. Bake for additional 7 minutes.
Serve with the rest of the sauce. Enjoy!
