Recipe: Wings - Super Hot Pepper

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 🔥🌶️Carl Sian🌶️🔥

Chicken wings are a popular snack or appetizer that can be dressed up in many different ways. To make hot pepper wings, simply toss chicken wings in a mixture of hot sauce, melted butter, and hot pepper flakes. Bake the wings until they are crispy, then serve with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping. These wings are sure to be a hit at your next party or get-together.

Ingredients:

2 pounds of chicken wings
1-2 super hot peppers, seeds and stems removed, finely chopped
1/2 cup of hot sauce
1/4 cup of unsalted butter
2 tablespoons of honey
2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with oil.
Rinse the chicken wings and pat dry with paper towels. Place the wings on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the wings are baking, make the hot sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the hot sauce, butter, honey, apple cider vinegar, and garlic powder. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter has melted and the sauce is well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
When the wings are done, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the hot sauce over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
Return the wings to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and the wings are hot and crispy.
Serve the hot chicken wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, and enjoy!

Notes:

Be sure to handle super hot peppers with care and use gloves if necessary. It's important to finely chop the peppers to distribute the heat evenly throughout the dish. If you prefer a milder version, you can substitute milder peppers or reduce the amount of super hot peppers used. Additionally, you can adjust the amount of hot sauce and spices to taste.
