Fiery Wings Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the ginger cider, sweet cider, salt and 1 cup water in an airtight container. Tie the juniper, peppercorns and bay leaves up in some cheesecloth to keep it together (this is called a sachet). Rinse the chicken wings, then add them to the container and store, refrigerated, overnight or for up to two days.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix together the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, oregano, and salt in a large bowl. Remove the wings from the brine and rinse thoroughly. Rub the wings with the spice mixture and place on a baking sheet. Bake until an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached, 30 to 45 minutes. Serve with Fiery Apple Wing Sauce.
• Combine the hot sauce, cider, cider syrup, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne in a large saucepan. Cook for 30 to 45 minutes on medium heat.
• Melt the butter in a separate saucepan. Once the sauce base has cooked down slowly, stream the melted butter into the base while whisking thoroughly to emulsify.

Steps:

• For the wings: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and brush the foil with the oil.
• Pat the wings dry with paper towels, then sprinkle with the baking powder and toss to evenly coat in a large mixing bowl. Spread the wings evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, crispy and cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• For the dry rub: Combine the brown sugar, salt, black pepper, granulated sugar, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne and celery seeds in a small bowl.
• Remove the wings from the oven and add to another large mixing bowl. Season well with some of the rub, and then toss to coat. (Reserve the remaining rub for another use.) Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat 3 inches of canola oil in a heavy pot to 375 degrees F.
• Add half the chicken wing parts to the oil and fry them until they're golden brown and fully cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the other half of the wing parts. In a saucepan, heat the cayenne sauce and butter over medium-low heat. Add the Worcestershire and hot sauce. Let it bubble up, and then turn off the heat. Place the wings in an ovenproof dish and pour the hot sauce over the top. Toss to coat, and then bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
• Serve with blue cheese dip, celery sticks... and your favorite cold, fizzy beverage.

Steps:

• Season wings with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour and cornstarch. Deep fry until done and crispy. Toss in hot wing sauce.
• In saute pan over medium heat, saute onions in oil for 4 minutes then add garlic. Cook 1 minute more. Add 2 cups chicken stock and ketchup, bring to a simmer. Mix remaining 1/4-cup stock and cornstarch together and whisk into saucepan to thicken. Now add Cheryl's Hot Sauce to desired heat, sugar, and salt, to taste.
• To a blender, add peppers and 1 cup of vinegar and puree. Add remaining vinegar, if needed. Stir in pimento seeds. Store in a bottle or jar in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and lightly grease with cooking spray. Place the flour, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt into a resealable plastic bag, and shake to mix. Add the chicken wings, seal, and toss until well coated with the flour mixture. Place the wings onto the prepared baking sheet, and place into the refrigerator. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl. Dip the wings into the butter mixture, and place back on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and crispy on the outside, about 45 minutes. Turn the wings over halfway during cooking so they cook evenly.
