Grapefruit Chicken Wings Recipes

PALOMA CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Coat wings in chile lime seasoning and baking powder, then sprinkle with salt. Place on a wire rack set in a sheet pan. Place in fridge 8 hours or up to overnight, uncovered, to air out for crispier skin.
• Place grapefruit juice, tequila, lime juice and agave in a small pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until thick and syrupy, 10 to 15 minutes. Take off heat and whisk in butter until melted. Season to taste.
• Preheat one half of a grill to low heat and the other half to high heat. Grill wings on the low side, covered, turning every few minutes, until slightly golden, about 20 minutes. Move to hot side of the grill and let cook, turning frequently, until golden brown and crispy, about 10 minutes more. Mix with warm sauce, garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro leaves and serve immediately with lime wedges alongside.

HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN WINGS

• Marinate wings in refrigerate 1 hour to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake the chicken wings, turning occasionally, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 90 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

GRAPEFRUIT CHICKEN WINGS

GRAPEFRUIT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken into a roasting pan, and squeeze the juice from the grapefruit halves all over and inside the chicken. Drizzle chicken with olive oil, and sprinkle with seasoned salt. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for 45 minutes; remove foil, and bake until meat is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

GRAPEFRUIT-SOY MARINATED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• In a nonreactive bowl mix all ingredients, turning the chicken wings to coat thoroughly. Marinate at least 3 hours, preferably overnight (up to 2 days!). Turn the wings occasionally while marinating. Preheat the broiler or grill. Broil or grill the wings using medium to low heat, turning once, for approximately 12-15 minutes. Be careful not to burn skin. Serve the wings hot or at room temperature. Serving Suggestion: Serve the wings with steamed rice. Boil the remaining marinade and pan juices until reduced and pour over the rice. Hint: If wings cook too quickly on the outside, but the meat is still pink at the bone, turn off the broiler and leave the wings to sit in the hot oven for 5-8 minutes. The wings will cook through without additional browning. Or, microwave the wings on high for a minute or so. Notes: For better cooking and a prettier presentation, fold the tip in back of the drummette so the wing forms a triangle.
