Honey Ancho Marinade for Chicken Wings
Recipe By : Bill
16 each Ancho chili peppers
1 pint orange juice
3/4 cup orange zest
1 cup lime juice
1 1/3 cups honey
1 1/3 cups peanut oil
1 cup white onions -- diced
1 1/3 tablespoons garlic -- minced
1 1/3 cups cilantro -- chopped
To prepare the ancho chilies, tear them into large pieces. Heat a dry
skillet to medium heat and press the anchos with the back of the spoon and
heat until they plump up and soften; do not let them crisp or burn.
Place the anchos in a bowl and pour in enough boiling water to cover. Cover with a
small plate to keep them submerged and let soak for 20-30 minutes.
To make the marinade, drain the chilies (discard the fluid) and combine
with the orange juice, zest, lime juice, and honey in a food processor or
blender; puree until smooth. With the motor running, drizzle in the oil a
little at a time. Add the onions, garlic and cilantro. Marinate wings for at
least 6 hours, preferably over night.
In a preheated 400 degree oven, arrange the wings in a single layer on a
sheet pan sprayed with vegetable spray; bake until the meat is no longer
pink inside the center.Recipe
