Sriracha Chicken Wings Recipes

CRISPY HONEY SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an oven-proof wire rack over the foil.
• Whisk baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika together in a small bowl. Place chicken wings in a large bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the baking powder mixture over wings and toss to coat. Sprinkle remaining baking powder mixture over wings and toss to coat again. Place wings onto the rack of the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn wings and continue baking for 20 minutes. Turn wings again and bake until wings are browned and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Transfer wings to a large bowl.
• Whisk honey, sriracha sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil together in a bowl until glaze is smooth. Drizzle glaze over wings and toss to coat completely. Transfer wings to a serving platter and sprinkle sesame seeds over the top.

SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Brine: Combine brine ingredients in a medium bowl. Place chicken wings in another bowl. Pour brine over wings and mix with your hands. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and store in the refrigerator 24 hours.
• Wings: Place a colander over a larger bowl. Drain the brined wings, reserving the brine in the bowl beneath (discard, or boil 10 minutes and save for future wing brining). Remove chicken wings to a baking sheet fitted with a metal rack. Set aside to bring to room temperature, 30 minutes.
• Fill a heavy-bottomed pot halfway with grapeseed oil and heat to 325 degrees F. Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix together rice and tapioca flours. Dredge wings in the flour. Fry in small batches until golden brown, 8-10 minutes (depending on wing size, it could take a little more or less time to cook). Shake off excess oil and remove cooked wings to a sheet rack.
• Assembly: Arrange wings on a serving platter with a side of sriracha sauce for dipping. (To make traditional buffalo wings, combine 1 cup sriracha with 3 tablespoons melted butter. Toss with wings and serve.)

HONEY-SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Whisk together the honey, sriracha, soy sauce, sesame oil and lime juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sauce comes together, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
• Fill a large Dutch oven halfway with canola oil and heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F. Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet and set aside. Whisk together the cold water, cornstarch, flour, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl until smooth. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
• Lift the chicken pieces out of the batter one at a time, letting the excess batter drip back into the bowl, and gently place in the hot oil; work in batches and try to keep the wings separated in the oil. Fry until golden, adjusting the heat as necessary to keep the oil temperature at 350 degrees F., 8 to 9 minutes per batch. Remove the chicken with a spider or slotted spoon and set on the prepared wire rack to drain briefly. Then, while the wings are still hot, toss them in the honey-sriracha sauce to evenly coat. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with the scallions.

THE BEST... SPICY SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS

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!

HONEY-BAKED SRIRACHA CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with sides with heavy-duty foil; spray with cooking spray.
• In 1-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix Sriracha sauce, oil, salt, pepper and drummettes. Seal bag; shake to coat. Add flour; seal bag, and shake until drummettes are coated with flour. Place drummettes on cookie sheets.
• Bake uncovered 30 minutes; turn drummettes over, and rotate cookie sheets. Bake 20 to 30 minutes longer or until golden brown and juice of drummettes is clear when thickest part is cut to bone (at least 165°F).
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, mix Glaze ingredients; heat to simmering over medium heat, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
• In large bowl, toss drummettes with sauce. Serve warm.
