Howling Wings Recipes

Steps:

• Note: You can also use 15 chicken wings (3lbs) cut at joints to make 3 pieces, discard the tips.
• Cut off excess skin from each wing section, discard. Place wings in a large resealable food storage plastic bag. Add chopped chipotle chiles and adobo sauce and Italian dressing; seal bag. Turn bag to mix ingredients and coat wings. Refrigerate at least 4 hours but no longer than 24 hrs, turning bag occasionally.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Place sheet of foil in bottom of broiler pan. Arrange wings on foil. Bake 15 mins; drain if necessary. Meanwhile, to make sauce, transfer marinade from bag to 2-quart saucepan; stir in caramel topping. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer.
• Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F, brush wings with sauce and bake about 30 mins longer, brushing every 15 mins with sauce, until browned and juice is clear when thickest part is cut to bone (180 degrees F) Serve with remaining sauce.

Steps:

• Put the chicken wings, buttermilk and 1/2 tsp salt in a bowl and toss together to coat. Cover and leave in the fridge overnight.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put all the ingredients for the spice mix in another large mixing bowl with a pinch of salt and mix well. Remove the wings from the fridge and, one at a time, roll them in the spice mix. Once fully coated, tip onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment, and roast for 35 mins. Meanwhile, mix the ingredients for the glaze together.
• Once the wings have browned, remove them from the oven and generously brush with the glaze. Reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4, put the wings back in and cook for a further 15 mins or until the glaze has gone sticky and is starting to caramelise. Remove the wings from the oven and rest for a minute or so. Serve with a blue cheese dip, if you like.
