This one is also from my SIL who is a great cook (thanks Al). It requires at least one hour of marination - but is best when marinated overnight. Ingredients: 
                        
                                                | 18 -24 chicken wings |  | 2 (1 1/4 ounce) packages taco seasoning (we like old el paso) |  | 1/8 cup vinegar |  | 1/8 cup oil |  | 1 dash cayenne pepper (or more to taste) |  Directions: 
                        
                            | 1. Clean chicken wings, cut at the joints into three pieces and discard wing tips. 2. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the taco seasoning, vinegar, oil and cayenne by  squishing  the bag to make a paste.
 3. Add the chicken wing pieces, seal the bag and  squish  until the paste is distributed evenly over the chicken pieces (if the paste is too thick then add a small amount of vinegar or water - but remember it is a paste - almost a rub).
 4. Marinate chicken 1 hour at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.
 5. Preheat oven to 400°F.
 6. Spread wings pieces on a baking sheet lined with foil (for easiest clean-up). Try to maintain some space between each piece - use a second baking sheet if necessary.
 7. Brush pieces with any extra paste.
 8. Bake at 400 for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, turning half way through the baking time.
 9. Can be held in a crock pot to serve at a party or buffet.
