CRISPY HONEY SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS



Crispy Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings image

The honey-sriracha glaze is quite delicious and incredibly simple, but merely an afterthought here. The real star of the show is the strange, but effective, technique of coating the wings with a baking powder-laced spice rub before baking. Through the magic of chemical reactions, the surface of the chicken becomes bone-dry, and eventually crisps up to something very similar to what would come out of a deep fryer.

THE BEST... SPICY SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS



The Best... Spicy Sriracha Chicken Wings image

Okay-so I stole this from Michael Symon, but they are so FREAKING good I had to share! The recipe appeared in Food and Wine magazine (February 2008). These are the best chicken wings I have ever had. There is a perfect amount of heat (for my taste) and the spices blend together perfectly! Please-don't be scared of the cinnamon. Never... be scared... of the cinnamon! This dish pairs well with Pippy's recipe for Mango Salad (helps with the heat from the Sriracha) http://www.recipezaar.com/24779.

Time P1DT30m

Yield 60 Wings, 7-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 lbs chicken wings, split
1/4 cup crushed coriander
1 teaspoon crushed cumin
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup sriracha chili sauce
12 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
3 limes, juice and zest of
vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • In a very large bowl, mix the coriander and cumin seeds, cinnamon, kosher salt and olive oil. Add split chicken wings and toss to cover completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  • Spread them wings on a few rimmed baking sheets and roast for about 30 minutes, until the wings are firm but not cooked all the way through. (Healthier Option: At this point, if you don't want to fry the wings, you can roast them for 1 hour longer, until they're golden and crispy.) Wash out your bowl. Add the Sriracha, butter, cilantro, lime zest and juice.
  • In a deep fryer or a very large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F.
  • Fry the wings in 4 or 5 batches until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes per batch; drain, shaking off the excess oil. If you like them crispy like we do, I say give 'em about 7 minutes. As each batch is finished, add the wings to the sauce and toss well. Transfer the wings to a platter, leaving the sauce in the bowl for the remaining batches. Recipe recommends serve hot-but I say they would be just as lovely cold!

SPICY SRIRACHA WINGS WITH CUCUMBER SOUR CREAM



Spicy Sriracha Wings With Cucumber Sour Cream image

Everyone knows that the best chicken wings have crisp skin and tender meat, but achieving that perfect balance can be a challenge. In this recipe, which is adapted from Taku, a Japanese restaurant in Brooklyn, the uncooked wings are brined overnight in a combination of yuzu juice and salt, then fried for a good 15 minutes. The result? Surprisingly crisp skin and juicy, flavorful meat. Once fried, they're tossed with a spicy sambal-Sriracha sauce, then served with a cooling cucumber-sour cream dip alongside.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup yuzu juice (see Tip)
1/2 cup kosher salt, plus more as needed
2 tablespoons sugar
18 chicken wings, about 3 * pounds, wing tips removed, each wing cut in half
6 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup sambal
1/4 cup Sriracha hot sauce
1 tablespoon rice-wine vinegar
1/2 English cucumber, quartered lengthwise and seeded
1 4-inch piece ginger
1 cup sour cream
1 quart vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Make the brine by combining the yuzu juice, 1/2 cup salt, sugar and 2 quarts water in a container large enough to hold the wings. Stir until the salt and sugar dissolve. Add the wings and refrigerate overnight. Rinse well and pat dry.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the butter, sambal, Sriracha and vinegar. Simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer to a blender and purée until smooth.
  • Cut the cucumber crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick pieces. Sprinkle them lightly with salt and let them sit for 10 minutes. Pat dry with a towel. Grate the ginger over a towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out 2 tablespoons juice into a bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt to the juice, then combine with the sour cream and cucumber. Season to taste.
  • Pour 2 inches of oil in a 10-by-4-inch pot and place over high heat. When the oil reaches 375 degrees, fry the chicken wings in batches. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until nicely browned. Transfer wings to a bowl. Toss with hot sauce. Serve with cucumber cream.

Tips for Making the Best Spicy Sriracha Chicken Wings:

  • Choose the right chicken wings. Look for plump, meaty chicken wings with a minimum of skin wrinkles. Avoid wings that are bruised or have a slimy texture.
  • Pat the chicken wings dry before cooking. This will help the wings crisp up in the oven and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Season the chicken wings liberally with salt and pepper. This will help enhance the flavor of the wings and make them more savory.
  • Use a combination of sriracha sauce, honey, and soy sauce for the glaze. This will create a sweet, spicy, and savory glaze that will coat the wings perfectly.
  • Bake the chicken wings in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes. Be sure to flip the wings halfway through cooking so that they cook evenly.
  • Serve the chicken wings hot with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Spicy sriracha chicken wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties, game days, or any other occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give spicy sriracha chicken wings a try.
