Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Yield Makes 35 to 45 wings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons finely grated orange zest
1/4 to 1/2 cup Sriracha hot-chile sauce, or other hot sauce
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon toasted-sesame oil
4 1/2 pounds chicken wing drumettes, patted dry with paper towels (35 to 45 wings)
2 teaspoons safflower oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup fresh orange juice (from about 2 oranges)
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons hoisin sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
Sliced scallions, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the wings: Whisk hoisin, orange zest, hot sauce, honey, and sesame oil in a large bowl. Refrigerate 1/2 cup marinade. Add wings to remaining marinade, and toss to coat. Cover, and refrigerate, tossing wings occasionally, for at least 2 hours (or overnight).
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Let wings stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes, rotating sheet and brushing with half of reserved marinade halfway through. Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. Bake wings, brushing with remaining marinade, until golden brown, about 20 minutes more.
  • Make the dipping sauce: Heat safflower oil and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat for 30 seconds. Add orange juice, honey, hoisin, and salt, and cook for 2 minutes. Let cool.
  • Arrange wings on platter, sprinkle with scallions, and serve with sauce.

SWEET SPICY WINGS



Sweet Spicy Wings image

Sweet and spicy wings! You can make two batches of the sauce, use one as a marinade before grilling the chicken, and pour the second batch over the chicken after it is grilled. It is not mandatory to do it this way, just better!

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded
1 ½ cups Louisiana-style hot sauce
¾ cup butter
1 cup honey
1 pinch garlic salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
  • Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill the chicken 8 to 12 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear. (You can deep fry or bake the chicken instead if you want to, but it is best when grilled.) Remove chicken to a large roasting pan.

SPICY CROCK-POT CHICKEN WINGS



Spicy Crock-Pot Chicken Wings image

I love traditional "buffalo" wings, but like to try new ways to make them. I found this recipe on Southernfoods.about.com (supposedly one of Zaar's competitors but not in my view). I screened the wing recipes on Zaar's site but didn't find any duplicates. I know you'll like the simplicity and taste of this wing variation as much as we did.
