Served as an entree over hot cooked rice, these delicious drummettes have plenty of personality-with sweet red pepper for color, red pepper flakes for zip and peanuts for crunch. These kung pao chicken wings are quick and easy to fix, too. -Kathleen Evans, Lacey, Washington

I tried this recipe and the wings were a little dry. I think I should have cooked them for a shorter amount of time.

These wings were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought sauce, but I'm sure it would be even better if I made it from scratch.
