SRIRACHA BUFFALO WINGS



Sriracha Buffalo Wings image

Spicy Buffalo wings get a little twist with some Sriracha sauce. I like to deep fry my wings, but I've also included instructions in the recipe notes for baking them.

Provided by Kirbie

Categories     Appetizer

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs party chicken wings
vegetable oil (for frying)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup water
1 tbsp cornstarch
4 tbsp butter
6 tbsp sriracha sauce
squeeze of fresh lime juice (optional)
chopped cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil to 350°F in preparation for frying. In a small bowl, whisk flour, water, and cornstarch until thick, smooth slurry forms. Coat wings lightly in the slurry (if it clings on too thick, manually wipe some of it off). Fry in small batches, about 9-10 minutes until crispy and golden.
  • While wings are cooking, make the buffalo sauce. Melt butter in a small saucepan on the stove. Stir in sriracha until sauce becomes uniform and orange. If desired, add in a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Coat finished wings with sauce (I used a brush and brushed the wings with the sauce, double coating each one). Garnish with cilantro if desired. Serve with carrots, celery and ranch dressing.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes

Time P3DT35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound red jalapeno peppers, stems cut off
½ pound red serrano peppers, stems cut off
4 cloves garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
⅓ cup water
½ cup distilled white vinegar

Steps:

  • Chop jalapeno and serrano peppers, retaining seeds and membranes, and place into a blender with garlic, brown sugar, salt, and water. Blend until smooth, pulsing several times to start.
  • Transfer puree into a large glass container such as a large jar or pitcher. Cover container with plastic wrap and place into a cool dark location for 3 to 5 days, stirring once a day. The mixture will begin to bubble and ferment. Scrape down the sides during each stirring. Rewrap after every stirring and return to a cool, dark place until mixture is bubbly.
  • Pour fermented mixture back into blender with vinegar; blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a saucepan, pushing as much of the pulp as possible through the strainer into the sauce. Discard remaining pulp, seeds, and skin left in strainer.
  • Place saucepan on a burner and bring sauce to a boil, stirring often, until reduced to your desired thickness, 5 to 10 minutes. Skim foam if desired.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and let sauce cool to room temperature. Sauce will thicken a little when cooled. Transfer sauce to jars or bottles and refrigerate.

CRISPY HONEY SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS



Crispy Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings image

The honey-sriracha glaze is quite delicious and incredibly simple, but merely an afterthought here. The real star of the show is the strange, but effective, technique of coating the wings with a baking powder-laced spice rub before baking. Through the magic of chemical reactions, the surface of the chicken becomes bone-dry, and eventually crisps up to something very similar to what would come out of a deep fryer.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Meat and Poultry     Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 ½ pounds chicken wing sections
⅓ cup honey
⅓ cup sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
1 pinch sesame seeds, or as desired

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an oven-proof wire rack over the foil.
  • Whisk baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika together in a small bowl. Place chicken wings in a large bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the baking powder mixture over wings and toss to coat. Sprinkle remaining baking powder mixture over wings and toss to coat again. Place wings onto the rack of the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn wings and continue baking for 20 minutes. Turn wings again and bake until wings are browned and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Transfer wings to a large bowl.
  • Whisk honey, sriracha sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil together in a bowl until glaze is smooth. Drizzle glaze over wings and toss to coat completely. Transfer wings to a serving platter and sprinkle sesame seeds over the top.

Tips:

  • For a spicier sauce, use more Sriracha sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • For a milder sauce, use less Sriracha sauce or add a bit of honey or maple syrup.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to coat the chicken evenly in the flour mixture before frying. This will help the sauce adhere to the chicken.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry and will result in soggy chicken.
  • Serve the chicken buffalo sauce with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Sriracha buffalo sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make sauce that is perfect for chicken wings, chicken tenders, or any other fried chicken dish. It is also a great dipping sauce for vegetables, such as celery and carrots. With its perfect balance of heat and flavor, Sriracha buffalo sauce is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
