Time 2h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
Big pinch of kosher salt
Pinch of granulated sugar
Juice of 2 limes
2 pounds chicken wings
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon butcher grind black pepper
1 tablespoon Hungarian paprika
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Buttermilk Herb Dipping Sauce, recipe follows, for serving
1 cup full-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan or pecorino cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup finely sliced chives
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill
1 clove garlic, grated
Zest of 1 lemon and juice of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the marinade: Combine the cayenne, salt, granulated sugar and lime juice in a large bowl, then add the wings, tossing to coat. Marinate, refrigerated, for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Allow the wings to come to room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Soak 2 cups applewood chips in water for 1 hour
  • Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
  • For the Memphis dry rub: Combine the brown sugar, salt, granulated sugar, black pepper, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin and cayenne in a small bowl. Any rub that is not used can be stored in a mason jar for up to 1 month.
  • Drain the soaked wood chips and throw them directly on top of the coals.
  • Remove the wings from the marinade, then place on the grate on the indirect side of the grill. Cover the grill with a lid and allow the wings to smoke for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • To finish, move the wings to the hot side of the grill to char, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the wings from the grill and add to a mixing bowl. Season liberally with the rub and toss to coat. Serve with Buttermilk Herb Dipping Sauce.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, cheese, parsley, chives, dill, garlic, lemon zest and juice and salt and pepper to taste. This makes a great salad dressing too--just thin it out with some more buttermilk!

Provided by William Uncle Bill

Categories     Chicken

Time 27m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 chicken mid-joint wings
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons whole milk, homogenized
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons sriracha hot chili sauce, See Note
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic powder
1 -2 cup canola oil or 1 -2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Remove wing tips and any loose skin and discard. Leave the remaining skin on if desired.
  • Rinse wings in cold water, pat dry with paper towels and set aside.
  • In a large zip-loc bag, combine flour, salt, cayenne pepper and paprika, shake well.
  • Add chicken to the zip-loc bag, seal and toss to coat well. Refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours. "Chilling the chicken wings is important to achieve nice, crispy wings.".
  • In a mixing bowl add Panko bread crumbs.
  • In another bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until frothy.
  • Remove chicken from the refrigerator and shake off any excess flour coating.
  • Dip coated chicken in the egg mixture, then roll in the Panko bread crumbs until well coated.
  • In a heavy bottom 12 inch frying pan or skillet, add oil and heat to 375°F.
  • Place chicken in the pan with the main meat side up and fry for 6 minutes.
  • Turn the chicken over and continue to fry for another 6 minutes. The wings should be nicely browned.
  • Test for doneness by making a cut into the thick portion of the wing to make sure there is no pink showing.
  • Remove chicken from the frying pan onto paper towels to absorb any excess oil, and immediately place in a large bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, add butter, Sriracha hot chili sauce, black pepper, granulated garlic powder and heat just to boil, stirring constantly.
  • Pour the hot sauce over the chicken wings and toss to coat well.
  • Serve immediately or while they are still hot.
  • You may also freeze the chicken after it is cooked and then reheated in a preheated 400 F oven for 10 minutes.
  • NOTE: You may also use the following choices of hot sauces.
  • 1 tablespoon of Red Hot Sauce - wings will be medium hot.
  • 2 tablespoons of Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce - wings will be hot.
  • 2 teaspoons of Sambal Oelek - wings will be very hot.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh chicken wings. If using frozen wings, thaw them thoroughly before cooking.
  • To make the wings extra crispy, pat them dry with paper towels before seasoning and cooking.
  • Be sure to coat the wings evenly with the spice rub before cooking. This will help to ensure that they are flavorful throughout.
  • Cook the wings at a high temperature to get a nice crispy skin. However, be careful not to overcook them, or they will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the wings with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

These smoky, spicy cocoa chicken wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for game day, parties, or any other occasion. With their unique flavor and crispy texture, these wings are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
