Preparation

Remove tips from chicken wings and reserve for stock if desired; separate wings at joint.

In small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; fry onion, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add raspberries, vinegar, molasses, honey, chipotle and half each of the salt and pepper; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered and stirring often, until reduced by half, about 12 minutes. Let cool slightly.

Scrape into blender; pur? Pressing on solids, strain through fine mesh sieve into large bowl. Set aside. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 2 days.)

Toss wings with remaining salt and pepper. Place on greased grill rack or in grill basket over medium heat; close lid and grill, turning occasionally, until crisp and juices run clear when chicken is pierced, about 30 minutes.

Add to raspberry mixture in bowl; toss to coat. Return to grill; grill, covered and turning once, for 4 minutes. Serve with remaining sauce for dipping.

Additional information : Tip: To bake instead of grill wings, bake on rack on foil-lined rimmed baking sheet in 400°F (200°C) oven, turning once, for 45 minutes. Coat wings in raspberry mixture then continue with recipe, baking wings instead of grilling them.
