- 4 lb. chicken wings
- 1 Tbsp. hot paprika
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 2 tsp. ground mustard
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Toss together wings, hot paprika, smoked paprika, and ground mustard in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.
Preheat oven to 450°F, with the racks in the upper and middle positions. Heavily grease two large rimmed baking sheets. Divide wings between baking sheets. Bake, rotating pans and turning wings halfway through, until cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine cider, vinegar, and Worcestershire in a medium saucepan. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook until reduced by half, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Dijon mustard.
Transfer all of the wings to one tray and brush with 1/4 of the cider mixture. Switch oven to broil. Broil until starting to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip wings and brush with another 1/4 of the cider mixture. Broil until starting to brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
Transfer remaining cider mixture to a bowl. Add wings and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with celery and apples, alongside.
