Al Rokers Spicy Chicken Wings Recipes

SWEET AND SPICY CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix flour, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, lemon pepper and paprika. Put into a large freezer bag and shake a few wings at a time in this mixture until they are well coated. Place coated wings into a large bowl or dish and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 1/2 - 2 hours (this is the secret step!).
• Heat oil in fryer to 375 degrees. While the oil is heating, mix the sauces together in a small saucepan, add the butter and heat until the butter is melted. Stir well.
• Fry wings for 8-10 minutes (depending on the size of your wings) or until they begin to brown. Lift fryer basket and shake off excess oil. Pierce one of the larger wings down to the bone and take a peek to make sure it is cooked; if not, pop the whole works back into the fryer for another minute. Lift basket and shake off oil once more. Dump wings into a large bowl and toss with the sauce, then turn out onto a serving platter. Enjoy!

LEYLEY'S SPICY CHICKEN ADOBO WINGS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the wings, and boil for 5 to 8 minutes. Drain in a colander and run under warm water. Return to the dry pot, and add the vinegar, water, bay leaves, peppercorns, onion and jalapenos. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.
• Season the chicken with soy sauce, and simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced by 1/2. Remove the wings to a colander, and set aside. Add a few garlic cloves to the liquid in the pan, and simmer until the sauce has a syrupy consistency, and the jalapenos have burst open releasing all of their seeds into the reduction.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken wings and the remaining garlic. Cook and stir until the garlic is tender and the wings have browned, about 10 minutes. Return wings to the sauce to coat before serving.

AL ROKER'S SPICY BEEF CHILI

Steps:

• In a large enameled cast-iron casserole or soup pot, heat the oil. Season the chuck with salt and pepper.
• Add half of the chuck and cook over moderately high heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to a plate. Repeat with the remaining chuck.
• Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 4 minutes. Add the sausage to the diced chuck.
• Add the chopped onion to the casserole and cook over moderate heat until tender, about 4 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
• Stir in the chili powder, paprika, cumin and the chuck, sausage and any accumulated juices. Cook, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes and their juices and the water. Cover and simmer over moderately low heat for 1 hour.
• Stir in the beans and simmer uncovered until thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt if desired.
• Serve the chili in deep bowls, passing the cheese, scallions, sour cream and cilantro on the side.
