SPICY RUM CHICKEN WINGS

Food Network Star-winner Eddie Jackson knows how to gear up for a big football game whether he's on the field or off. He played in the NFL for four seasons (he's a former Patriots cornerback), and now he owns a food truck, so he has plenty of experience cooking in parking lots. His tailgate go-to: chicken wings made with rum, soy sauce and one of his favorite ingredients, habanero chile peppers.

Time 5h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup dark rum
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
5 large cloves garlic, minced
3 scallions, finely chopped, plus more for topping
1 to 2 habanero chile peppers, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
12 jumbo chicken wings, split at the joints, tips removed

Steps:

  • Make the marinade: Combine the rum, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, scallions, habaneros, ginger, allspice, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
  • Place the wings in a resealable plastic bag and add the marinade. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly, then turn the bag over to completely coat the wings. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight, turning the bag once or twice.
  • Drain the wings, reserving the marinade. Bring the marinade to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until reduced by about half, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a charcoal grill by placing coals on half of the grill. Light the charcoal and wait for the embers to become white. (Add your favorite wood or wood chips at this point.) Replace the grate and put the wings on the cooler side of the grill.
  • Cover with the lid and cook until the juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove the wings from the grill and toss with the reduced marinade. Place the wings on the grill over direct heat and cook, turning frequently, until the sauce has caramelized, 3 to 4 minutes. Top with chopped scallions and serve with lime wedges.

Provided by carmel housewife

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
12 ounces frozen orange juice
18 ounces orange marmalade
2 tablespoons salt
1 orange
2 mangoes
1 lime
1/4 cup rum
3 tablespoons butter
1 habanero pepper
2 tablespoons honey
1 leaf from 2 sprigs cilantro (optional)
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Lightly pound chicken to soften.
  • In a large baking dish, combine thawed Orange Juice, melted Orange Marmalade and Salt.
  • Add chicken and enough water to just cover chicken.
  • Marinate chicken at least 2 or up to 48 hours. (I always make it at least a day ahead for more flavor.).
  • Sauce: (Can be made up a day ahead or frozen and re-heated) :.
  • In a food processor, puree mangoes.
  • Add the juice of 1 orange, 1 lime, 1/4 cup rum, butter, honey, cilantro and salt.
  • Mix in processor and transfer to saucepan.
  • Add whole (not chopped) habanero into saucepan and heat on medium heat until the sauce has your preferred amount of heat.
  • Remove pepper. (If it is still not hot enough after 20 minutes, remove pepper and dice. Slowly add until it is to your taste.
  • Grill chicken and pour sauce over chicken when plating. Tastes great with my posted Coconut Rice, Recipe #312530.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality rum for the marinade. A dark rum will give the chicken a richer flavor, while a light rum will give it a more subtle flavor.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
  • If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for just 30 minutes. However, the longer you marinate it, the more flavorful it will be.
  • When you're ready to cook the chicken, be sure to preheat your grill or oven to the proper temperature.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Rum chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to add a little bit of flavor to your next chicken dinner. Whether you're grilling, baking, or frying the chicken, you're sure to enjoy this flavorful dish.
