Hot Pepper Wings Recipes

HOT-PEPPER WINGS

Steps:

• Season 3 pounds chicken wings with salt and pepper. Bake at 425 degrees F until golden, about 40 minutes. Melt 4 tablespoons butter with a 2-ounce bottle of green hot sauce. Pour over the wings and bake 15 more minutes. Toss the wings with 1/2 cup each chopped cilantro and scallions. Top with sliced pickled jalapenos.

HOT WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high.
• Season the wings with Cajun pepper. In a medium bowl, combine the chipotle pepper sauce with 1 tablespoon Cajun pepper, and honey, to taste. Place the wings on the grill and as you cook them, turn them and brush each time with the pepper sauce mixture. Make sure the wings cook long enough on each side so they get crispy around the edges.
• Remove the wings from the grill and brush again with the pepper sauce mixture before serving.

BROILED HOT PEPPER WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Line a sheet pan with foil, place a rack on top of the pan and oil the rack.
• Toss the wings with the 2 tablespoons oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the wings on the rack in 1 layer. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat, turning over once, until barely cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• In a small saucepan over moderate heat, whisk the hot pepper jelly, lime juice and hot sauce until smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and let simmer 1 to 2 minutes. Brush 1/4 cup sauce on the cooked wings and broil 1 to 2 minutes. Brush the wings with 1/4 cup sauce again, and then turn the wings over and brush with another 1/4 cup sauce. Broil until crispy about, 2 to 3 minutes. Brush with the remaining sauce before serving.
