Steps
- Preheat oven to 425 F. Spread wings on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes until caramelized and sticky, stirring once.
- While wings cook, mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk milk and egg together, then stir into dry ingredients until just combined.
- Grease an 8 inch cast iron or baking dish with 1 tbsp butter, pour in cornbread batter, and bake for 20 minutes alongside the wings.
- Heat remaining butter in a skillet and warm the green beans for 5 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.
