Pickled Pepper Wings
List of Ingredients
Humm seems Peter Piper was no slouch...
(for about one dozen wings or 24 segments)
1/4 stick unsalted butter
1/4 cup red pepper sauce (Louisiana, RedHot, Texas Pete)
1 tbs barbeque sauce (or 1 tbs ketchup and 1/2 tsp liquid smoke)
1 tbs minced fresh garlic
2 tbs Tabasco
10 pickled tabasco peppers, finely minced with seedsRecipe
Make the sauce first, melt the margarine and add garlic into the
warm mixture. Do not heat the cayenne sauce as it tends to make
the sauce oversalty and greasy. Cool the margarine for a few
minutes and add ingredients. Mix well and let stand at room temp.
Frying is best, but if you like to bake instead, I suggest turning
often or suspending the wings above the cooking container to prevent
the skin of the chicken from sticking to the pan. If baking, bake
until done (it's a no brainer). If frying, fry until wings float
and are crisp on the outside. Drain and dry wings well, put them
in a sealable container with the sauce, and shake gently, inverting
the container to coat. The top of the container will suck in as
the wings cool. Leave in the container, shaking several times,
until the lid of the container begins to return to normal. This
helps draw the sauce into the wing surface. Enjoy!!
