Grill


Sweet Chili-Glazed Chicken Wings

September 23, 2004


     Tailgaters can be a hungry crowd, and here’s a great appetizer to serve while the rest of the meal is cooking. These can be made the night before and reheated the next day before glazing.
     Also, these can be grilled. Recipe from Bon Appetit.
     
     50 MINUTES
     30 minutes to make
     20 minutes to bake
     Does not include marinate time
     

     2 pounds chicken wings
     1/4 cup peanut oil
     3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
     3 tablespoons soy sauce
     2 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic, divided
     2 tablespoons minced ginger
     3/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper, divided
     1 cup rice vinegar
     3/4 cup sugar
     1/2 cup water
     1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce
     

     Cut each chicken wing in half at joint. Mix oil, cilantro, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons garlic, ginger and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper in large bowl.
     Add chicken wings and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours.
