GARLIC-GINGER CHICKEN WINGS



Garlic-Ginger Chicken Wings image

My mom lives in a small town in western New York, called Clifton Springs. Whenever I go home to visit, I usually indulge in some Buffalo chicken wings from a place called Emerson's. They have two flavors of wings; Buffalo-style, and sweet and sour. I came up with what turned out to be a deliciously sticky, ginger and garlic glaze. I really hope you give these a try.

Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
5 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons hot sauce (such as Frank's Red Hot ®)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 crushed garlic cloves
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
1 tablespoon Asian chile pepper sauce
½ cup rice vinegar
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil; grease the foil with cooking spray.
  • Place the chicken in a large mixing bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Add the vegetable oil; toss to coat.
  • Place the flour and wings in a large, food-safe plastic bag. Hold the bag closed tightly, and shake to coat the wings entirely with the flour; no wet spots should remain. Arrange the wings on the prepared baking sheets, making sure none of the pieces are touching one another. Spray wings with additional cooking spray
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, turn all the wings, and return to the oven to cook until crispy and no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more.
  • Whisk together the garlic, ginger, chili paste, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and soy sauce in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and immediately remove from heat.
  • Put about half the wings in a large mixing bowl. Pour about half the sauce over the wings. Toss the wings with tongs to coat evenly; transfer to a tray and allow to sit about 5 minutes to allow the sauce to soak into the wings before serving. Repeat with remaining wings and sauce.

SPICY GINGER CHICKEN WINGS



Spicy Ginger Chicken Wings image

These wings are sweet, spicy and sticky but if you're into the sweet ginger but don't like spicy, just leave out the serrano chilies. Make sure to test your chilies, 'cause there can be a lot of variation in heat!

Categories     appetizer

Time 9h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup honey, preferably wildflower or mesquite
1/4 cup lime juice plus 1 tablespoon grated lime zest, plus more zest, for garnish
1/4 cup tamari or soy sauce
3 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 scallions, thinly sliced (about 3 tablespoons)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
16 chicken wings (about 4 pounds), tips removed, drumettes and flats separated

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice and zest, tamari, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, scallions, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Reserve 3/4 cup of the marinade for later use. Pour the remaining marinade into a 2-gallon ziptop bag. Add the chicken and seal the bag, pressing out as much air as possible; massage to distribute the marinade. Marinate, refrigerated, for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Remove the chicken wings from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Put the wings skin-side down on the baking sheet and spoon the marinade from the bag over the wings. Cook for 20 minutes, then flip the wings, baste with the pan drippings, rotate the pan and cook until the honey has caramelized and the skin is a dark amber, an additional 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Pour the reserved 3/4 cup marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the liquid is thick and syrupy and turns into a glaze, about 4 minutes. Coat the wings with the thickened marinade. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with lime zest.

SPICY LACQUERED CHICKEN WINGS



Spicy Lacquered Chicken Wings image

Here is a remarkably sophisticated though dead simple take on classic dude food: chicken wings that work just as well in front of a football game on the television as at a Chinese New Year party. They are sweet, spicy, sticky, fragrant and full-flavored, and they have a fine, shiny lacquered coat. Top with a scallion and cucumber relish spiked with roasted peanuts, sesame oil and hot red peppers. A bed of sliced juicy navel oranges can serve as a foil to the spicy heat.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings (18 to 20 wings)

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 pounds meaty chicken wings, tips removed
Salt
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice wine or sherry
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon grated ginger
6 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 small cucumber, diced (about 1 cup)
6 scallions, slivered
2 or 3 small hot red chiles, very thinly sliced (or hot green chiles), optional
2 tablespoons crushed roasted peanuts
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 handful cilantro leaves
2 navel oranges, sliced

Steps:

  • Rinse the wings, pat dry, season lightly with salt and put them in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice wine, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, five-spice powder, cayenne and orange zest, then pour over the wings and massage well. Let marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate (overnight is fine) and bring to room temperature.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Arrange the wings in one layer in a low-sided baking dish or roasting pan (or use 2 pans) and place on middle shelf. Every 8 to 10 minutes, brush the wings with the marinade from the pan, adding 3 or 4 tablespoons water to dissolve the juices as necessary. Continue until well browned, glazed and cooked through, about 40 to 45 minutes. The wings may be cooked ahead and reheated if desired.
  • Pile the wings on a warm platter. Quickly assemble the garnish. In a small bowl combine the cucumber, scallions, chiles, crushed peanuts and sesame oil. Season with salt, toss lightly and scatter over the wings. Sprinkle with the cilantro. Surround with orange slices and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken wings. Use fresh, plump chicken wings with evenly distributed fat. Avoid wings that are bruised or have freezer burn.
  • Marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make it more flavorful.
  • Preheat your oven to the correct temperature. The oven temperature will vary depending on the recipe, so be sure to check the recipe before you start cooking.
  • Bake the chicken wings until they are cooked through. The chicken wings should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
  • Let the chicken wings rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken and make it more tender.
  • Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular dipping sauces for chicken wings include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and honey mustard.
