Categories     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups canola oil
20 fresh chicken wings
4 cups freshly squeezed orange juice
4 cups water
1/2 cup tupelo honey
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
3/4 cup hot pepper sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons smoked jalapenos
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
bleu cheese salad dressing, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Puree the honey, marmalade, hot pepper sauce, and jalapeños in a food processor until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan over medium heat, bring to a simmer, and cook for 1 minute. Add the butter and stir until melted. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
  • Make the wings: Heat the canola oil in a large stockpot or deep fryer over medium heat until a deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F In another large pot, combine the wings, orange juice, and water and bring to a boil. Boil the wings for about 10 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through ad no longer pink when pierced or to a temperature of 160°F Transfer the wings with a slotted spoon to paper towels and pat dry. Using a slotted spoon, carefully add the wings to the oil and fry for about 10 minutes, or until crispy golden brown. While the wings are frying, pour the wing sauce into a saucepan and bring just to a simmer. Remove the wings from the oil and drain on paper towels. Place the wings in a large bowl and add the sauce, stirring until well coated. Transfer the wings to a serving platter and serve with the dressing.
  • *To Smoke Jalapenos if Desired: Put 2 cups hickory chips in the bottom of a 4-inch deep heavy roasting pan. Cover with water and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain the water and cover the chips with aluminum foil. Place whole peppers on the foil, cover the pan tightly with additional foil, and put in a 450 F oven for about 10 minutes. (The foil will puff up like you're making Jiffy popcorn.) Turn the oven down to 250 F and cook for 20 to 30 minutes longer. Allow the peppers to cool before removing seeds and membranes. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken wings: Fresh, plump chicken wings are best. Avoid wings that are bruised or have any discoloration.
  • Dry the chicken wings thoroughly: This will help the coating to adhere better and will result in crispier wings.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the wings their flavor, so choose one that you like. The recipe in the article uses a simple marinade made with olive oil, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt.
  • Coat the wings evenly in the marinade: Make sure that each wing is coated on all sides.
  • Let the wings marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to penetrate the chicken.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit: This will ensure that the wings cook evenly.
  • Bake the wings for 25-30 minutes, or until they are cooked through: The wings are done when they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the wings with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular choices include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Tupelo honey wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or game day. The combination of sweet and spicy flavors is sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a new recipe to try, give these wings a try. You won't be disappointed.
