Best 5 Broiled Hot Pepper Wings Recipes

BROILED CHICKEN WINGS RECIPE

Steps:

• First, prepare the oven for broiling. Position the rack about 10 inches from the broiler heating element. In my electric oven I place it in the fourth position from the top. Take note of the width and depth of the heating element, you will need that in a later step.Set the broiler to high. If you put the wings in while it's preheating they may burn so it's always a good idea to let the oven pre-heat first for about 20 minutes or so.
• Combine all of the ingredients for the rub in a medium bowl. Add the wings and mix well until they are evenly coated all over.
• Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil, then place a cooling rack on top. You don't have to use aluminum foil but if you do, it will save a lot of cleaning time afterwards.
• Dump the wings on the cooling rack and spread around, leaving some space in between the wings, while making sure that the wings will be directly under the heating element.
• Transfer the baking sheet with the wings to the oven and let them broil for 10 minutes on high. Do not open the oven during this time as every time you open the oven you will lose heat and the heating element will be heating and getting very hot which may cause the wings brown too fast.
• After 10 minutes, the wings will have crisped up quite nicely. If not, let the broiled a few minutes more. Otherwise, flip them and continue broiling on high for another 10 minutes, or until the desired level of browning.
• Remove the wings from the oven, transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately. You can serve these wings as is, they are perfectly seasoned, with a dash of freshly squeezed lime juice, or with a dipping sauce, or tossed in your favorite BBQ or hot sauce.

HOT-PEPPER WINGS

Steps:

• Season 3 pounds chicken wings with salt and pepper. Bake at 425 degrees F until golden, about 40 minutes. Melt 4 tablespoons butter with a 2-ounce bottle of green hot sauce. Pour over the wings and bake 15 more minutes. Toss the wings with 1/2 cup each chopped cilantro and scallions. Top with sliced pickled jalapenos.

BROILED CHICKEN WITH PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Put the potato in a medium saucepan, cover with water and add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain well. Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry and sprinkle with the oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate. Add the potato to the skillet and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook until slightly soft, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to medium; add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the garlic and cook 2 minutes. Add the cherry peppers and brine and cook, scraping up the pan with a wooden spoon, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Return the chicken to the skillet and sprinkle with the parsley. Toss with tongs, then set the chicken skin-side up on top of the vegetables. Broil until the skin is crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.

BAKED BUFFALO WINGS

Steps:

• Make the blue cheese dip: In a small bowl, stir together blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and lemon juice. Thin with milk until spoonable. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. (Dip keeps for up to 4 days in the refrigerator; thin as needed with more milk.)
• Place an oven rack 4 to 6 inches from the broiler. Heat the broiler.
• Prepare the chicken: Pat the wings dry. If the wings are not yet broken down into three pieces, cut each wing at the two joints. To do so, flip the wing over and wiggle each part to find the joint. Cut at the joint hinge to separate the meaty drumette from the wingette (also known as the flat) and the wingette from the smaller wing tip.
• In a large bowl, toss the baking powder with 1 tablespoon kosher salt. Add the wings and toss until evenly coated. Spread the wings in an even layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. (To prepare them in advance and allow them to dry-brine, let the wings sit out at room temperature for up to 1 hour after coating, or in the refrigerator overnight. Let them come to room temperature before proceeding.)
• Broil the wings in the oven until golden and crisp all over, turning halfway through, about 15 minutes per side.
• As wings cook, make the buffalo sauce: In a large bowl, stir together the hot sauce, butter, lemon juice and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the wings to the hot sauce-mixture and toss to coat. Using a slotted spoon, return the wings to the baking sheet, leaving extra sauce behind. Broil until sizzling and browned in spots, about 5 minutes. (Depending on your broiler, you may need to rotate the pan so all the food is exposed to the heat source.)
• Serve with extra buffalo sauce and the blue cheese dip.

DAD'S GRILLED HOT WINGS

Steps:

• Cut wings into sections and discard tips. Season with poultry seasoning salt, garlic salt, and black pepper.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook wings on the grill, turning occasionally, until skin is golden brown, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove wings from grill; keep grill hot.
• Pour hot sauce into a deep, microwave-safe serving dish; add butter. Heat in a microwave oven until butter is melted, about 1 minute. Stir to combine.
• Dip grilled wings into sauce and return to the hot grill. Cook for 3 minutes. Dip wings in sauce a second time; return to grill and cook 3 to 5 minutes more. Place wings in serving dish with remaining sauce.
