Spicy Tequila Sunrise Chicken Wings image

This is a recipe that I made up for a bunch of hungry guys that where watching football one afternoon with my husband. They loved them so much that they actually paid more attention to the wings than the game for 15 minutes! For milder sauce use mild chili sauce instead of Thai. Serve with celery and ranch or blue cheese dressing.

Time 4h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (10 ounce) jar prepared jalapeno pepper jelly
1 cup orange juice
1 cup tequila
2 pounds chicken wings
½ gallon vegetable oil for frying
½ cup butter
¼ cup Thai-style chili sauce

Steps:

  • Whisk jalapeno pepper jelly, orange juice, and tequila together in a bowl until smooth; pour into a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken wings, coat with the marinade, squeeze to remove excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 4 hours to overnight.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken wings from the marinade and shake to remove excess moisture. Blot wings dry with paper towel. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Fry chicken wings in batches in hot oil until golden brown on the outside and no longer pink on the inside, 10 to 15 minutes per batch. Drain on a wire baking rack.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir chili sauce into the melted butter until the color is consistent; pour into a large stainless steel bowl. Add chicken wings and toss to coat in the sauce.

These chicken wings were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a more savory sauce.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken wings were dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.
