Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sriracha
2 tablespoons brown mustard
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
3 pounds cornstarch
1 1/4 pounds all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated garlic
1/2 cup onion powder
1/2 cup paprika
1/4 cup ground black pepper
1/4 cup cayenne pepper
4 to 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup milk
12 large eggs

Steps:

  • For the sweet hot sauce: Combine the ketchup, honey, brown sugar, sriracha, mustard, vinegar, cayenne and 2 tablespoons water in a large bowl and whisk vigorously until everything is mixed well.
  • For the flour dredge: Mix together the cornstarch, flour, granulated garlic, onion powder, paprika, black pepper and cayenne in a large bowl.
  • For the chicken: Heat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
  • Cut the chicken into strips approximately the size of your thumb, making each strip as even as possible. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a large shallow dish for the egg wash. Roll the chicken strips in the flour dredge until evenly coated, shaking off the excess. Then dip in the egg wash. Then dip in the flour dredge once again.
  • In batches, place the chicken strips in the fryer basket and drop it in the oil, giving it a good shake to make sure they don't stick together. Cook until they all begin to float, about 5 minutes. (To insure they have been cooked all the way, feel free to cut one in half.) Toss them in a large bowl with some sweet hot sauce until evenly coated. Repeat with the remaining chicken.

Applebee's Quesadilla Burgers (Copycat) image

I have never eaten Applebees Quesadilla burgers but I can say that these burgers are awesome! You can adapt this to make as many burgers as you need. I used a little over a pound of hamburger for 4 burgers and had left over seasoning.

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 (10 inch) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/3 cup shredded monterey jack pepper cheese
1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
diced onion
diced canned jalapeno
bacon (cooked and crumbled)
southwest seasoned hamburger (recipe follows)

1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
crushed red pepper flakes (to taste)
1 teaspoon salt (I didnt measure)
1 tablespoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • For hamburgers:.
  • Combine all seasoning ingredrients. Use one heaping Tblsp of seasoning mix per pound of hamburger meat. Mix into hamburger meat until well combined. Fry or grill. ( I used George Foreman grill).
  • Assembling the complete burger:.
  • Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Spread butter on one side of each tortilla. Put one tortilla, butter side down in the hot pan. Sprinkle the cheeses evenly onto the center of the tortilla in the pan- but not all the way to the edges. Put the tomato, onion, bacon and jalapeno over the cheese, add the cooked seasoned burger and cover with the other tortilla butter side up (like a grilled cheese sandwhich). When the bottom is browned, about 45-90 seconds, flip the quesadilla and grill the other side. Remove the quesidilla from the pan and using a pizza cutter, cut throught the middle. Serve.

ALTERNATE HONEY BARBECUE SAUCE WITH RIBLETS (APPLEBEE'S COPYCAT)



Alternate Honey Barbecue Sauce With Riblets (Applebee's Copycat) image

This is a recipe I originally found in the Recipe Link but it's also posted in various other cooking sites. I include this recipe here, because Honey Barbeque is one of my favorite sauces ever! Advice: Feel free to try the sauce with any piece of meat, other than riblets ( my personal favorite is chicken legs or chicken in general ) but avoid hard and chewy meat like beef (unless it's your thing). You need something soft, try pork. If you favor more spice than sweetness, cut down on the honey and increase the spice quantity for a sharp difference. Also, you can use 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of brown sugar, instead of molasses. By no means whatsoever, don't mix the sauce with the riblets in any stage of their cooking. Simply soak them in the sauce just before serving. Water and fat that meat excretes during baking will liquefy and spoil your sauce. You can cook them altogether in a deep frying pan though, just over low heat. Matches well with side dishes like french fries, coleslaw and very mild blue cheese or sour cream dip. Enjoy!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 3h45m

Yield 1 large pan, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons molasses
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 kg pork riblet
1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring

Steps:

  • Preparing the Riblets: First, season the riblets with salt, pepper and garlic, depending on how spicy you want them.
  • Then, sear the ribs on the grill/broiler until both sides are mahogany in color and the meat has begun to pull away from the bone (155°F internal temperature).
  • Place the riblets on rack in a deep pan/roaster.
  • Cover the bottom of the pan with a mixture of water and liquid smoke flavoring (4:1 ratio of water to liquid smoke).
  • Apply the mixture strategically, so as not to touch the riblets (it will make them bitter), just cover the space between them.
  • Seal the pan tightly with two layers of foil wrap to cover.
  • Slow cook the riblets in 275°F oven until their meat is tender. Time varies with how many riblets are being cooked, the pan used and your oven temperature. Plan on anywhere from two to five hours, but check to be sure. The slower, the better for this process. Just make sure an internal food temperature of 155°F is maintained.
  • You can also try covering the riblets with chopped onions, peppers and tomatoes. This also keeps them moist and adds a nice flavor.
  • When the riblets are fully cooked and tender, remove them from the oven and finish them off on grill/broiler until the marrow in the bone tips "sizzles".
  • Preparing the Honey Barbecue Sauce: Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a saucepan and simmer them for 20 minutes.
  • Brush the riblets with the sauce and serve them warm.

Tips:

  • To ensure the wings are evenly coated, toss them in the baking powder, salt, and pepper mixture before adding the sauce.
  • Use a large bowl to toss the wings in the sauce to prevent overcrowding and ensure they are evenly coated.
  • If you prefer a crispier texture, bake the wings for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  • To make sure the wings are cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Serve the wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch, blue cheese, or honey mustard.
