CHILI'S SHANGHAI WINGS AND WASABI RANCH DRESSING image

Categories     Chicken     Appetizer

Yield 2 or 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 chicken breast fillets
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 egg
1 cup milk
4 to 8 cups vegetable oil (as required by fryer)
GINGER-CITRUS SAUCE:
1 1/4 cups water
1 tablespoon corn starch
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
WASABI-RANCH DRESSING:
1/2 cup Hidden Valley Ranch bottled salad dressing
2 tablespoons buttermilk (or whole milk)
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon powdered wasabi
1 drop green food coloring

Steps:

  • Slice each chicken breast into 6 pieces. Combine flour, salt, peppers and paprika in a medium bowl. In another small bowl, whisk together egg and milk. One or two at a time, dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture, then into the breading blend; then repeat the process so that each piece of chicken is double-coated. When all chicken pieces have been breaded, arrange them on a plate and chill for 15 minutes. Preheat 4 to 8 cups of oil (use the amount required by your fryer) in a deep fryer to 375 degrees. GINGER-CITRUS SAUCE: As the chicken is resting, make the ginger-citrus sauce by dissolving the corn starch in the water. Pour the water into a medium saucepan along with the rest of the sauce ingredients and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. When the sauce begins to bubble, reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until thick. Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool a bit. WASABI-RANCH DRESSING: Make the wasabi-ranch dressing while your ginger-citrus sauce is simmering. Simply whisk together the ranch dressing, buttermilk, prepared horseradish, powdered wasabi, and green food coloring in a small bowl. Cover and chill this until the wings are done. When the chicken has rested and you're ready to cook, lower the boneless wings into the oil and fry for 5 to 6 minutes or until each piece is browned. Depending on the size of your fryer, you may want to fry the chicken in batches so that the chicken isn't too crowded in there. When chicken pieces are done frying, remove them to a draining rack or a plate lined with a couple paper towels. When all the chicken is fried, place the pieces into a covered container such as a large jar with a lid. Pour the Ginger-citrus Sauce over the chicken in the container, cover it up, and then gently shake everything around until each piece of chicken is coated with sauce. Pour the chicken onto a plate and serve the dish with Wasabi-ranch Dressing on the side.

I've made these wings several times now, and they're always a hit. They're crispy, flavorful, and the perfect amount of spicy. The wasabi ranch dressing is also a great addition.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these wings were surprisingly good. The chili sauce had just the right amount of heat, and the wasabi ranch dressing was a great way to cool things down.

These wings were amazing! The chili sauce was perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the honey and the tanginess of the vinegar. The wasabi ranch dressing was also a great addition, adding a nice kick of flavor.

Overall, I thought these wings were pretty good. The chili sauce was flavorful and the wasabi ranch dressing was a nice complement. However, I found the wings to be a bit dry.

These wings were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. The wasabi ranch dressing was a great addition, and I would definitely make these again, but with less chili sauce.

I loved the crispy texture of these wings, and the chili sauce was perfectly spicy. The wasabi ranch dressing was a bit too tangy for my taste, but it was still a great addition to the wings.

I've made these wings several times now, and they always turn out great. They're crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with the perfect amount of heat. The wasabi ranch dressing is also a must-try.
