Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups (720 milliliters) Thai sweet chile sauce
3/4 cup (120 milliliters) sriracha, or more if you prefer it spicier
12 whole chicken wings, cut in half at the joint, with tips discarded or saved for stock
2 cups (450 grams) tempura flour
2 1/2 quarts (2.8 liters) vegetable oil, for frying
2 cups (450 grams) cornstarch

Steps:

  • Stir the sweet chile sauce and sriracha together in a large bowl. You will be frying the wings and rolling them in this sauce while they're hot.
  • Rinse the chicken wings in cold water, drain briefly and place in a shallow baking dish while still damp. Sprinkle the wings evenly with the tempura flour and massage until a thin batter forms.
  • Heat the oil in a large 6-quart Dutch oven or heavy-bottom pot over high heat. Using a deep-fry thermometer, bring the temperature of the oil to 365 degrees F.
  • Pour the cornstarch into a second large bowl. Dredge the chicken wings through the cornstarch, shake to remove any excess. Working in 3 batches, fry the wings until cooked through and golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes, turning them occasionally. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees F.
  • Drain the wings on paper towels briefly, then roll them in the prepared sauce. Serve hot.

SWEET AND SPICY CHICKEN WINGS



Sweet and Spicy Chicken Wings image

I love wings! I have had many a mediocre wing, some decent wings, some really good wings and a few outstanding wings. I am proud to say that my favorite wing is the one I learned to make myself. After years of trying different techniques (baked, fried, boiled first (blech), various sauces, etc) I have come up with what I think is wing perfection. I have discovered that the best wing is deep fried, but first must be coated and left to "rest" before frying. Once fried, these wings are crisp, juicy and delicious as is. My favorite wing however is sauced with a hot and sweet concoction which is super easy to put together and is, I must say, a blend of two commercial sauces with a bit of butter melted in. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs chicken wings
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup Frank's red hot sauce (more or less, depending on how hot you like it)
4 teaspoons butter

Steps:

  • In a small bowl mix flour, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, lemon pepper and paprika. Put into a large freezer bag and shake a few wings at a time in this mixture until they are well coated. Place coated wings into a large bowl or dish and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 1/2 - 2 hours (this is the secret step!).
  • Heat oil in fryer to 375 degrees. While the oil is heating, mix the sauces together in a small saucepan, add the butter and heat until the butter is melted. Stir well.
  • Fry wings for 8-10 minutes (depending on the size of your wings) or until they begin to brown. Lift fryer basket and shake off excess oil. Pierce one of the larger wings down to the bone and take a peek to make sure it is cooked; if not, pop the whole works back into the fryer for another minute. Lift basket and shake off oil once more. Dump wings into a large bowl and toss with the sauce, then turn out onto a serving platter. Enjoy!

  • Begin by taking the chicken one piece at a time and thouroughly coating it in the egg mixture. Then put it into the flour mixture making sure it has a nice thick coating.
  • After all the pieces of chicken are coated, place them about 6 or seven at a time (however many will fit in your frier at a time) into the oil for about 10-12 minutes.
  • While The chicken is frying, begin the sauce. Over Medium heat in a saucepan melt down half the stick of butter. Adding the onion powder, garlic powder, and cinnamon at this time. Then add the honey. Let this come to a boil for just a few seconds.Once boiling turn heat to low and add texas pete and worcestershire sauce. Mix well then add second half of butter and let melt over low heat. (make sure you test to see if its spicy enough for you)
  • Once wings are done, place paper towels on a plate and let the excess oil from the wings drain on paper towels.
  • Once they have drained and crisped up a little toss them in the sauce. Great served as is or with some celery. ENJOY!

SWEET SPICY WINGS



Sweet Spicy Wings image

Sweet and spicy wings! You can make two batches of the sauce, use one as a marinade before grilling the chicken, and pour the second batch over the chicken after it is grilled. It is not mandatory to do it this way, just better!
