CHICKEN WINGS MARINARA

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Heat 4 inches peanut oil in a medium stockpot over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 400 degrees. Dredge wings in flour, shaking to remove excess flour. Add wings to hot oil, and fry until dark golden brown, 14 to 18 minutes. Transfer to prepared baking sheet; season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add crushed garlic; cook until fragrant, about 4 minutes. Remove garlic from oil and discard. In a medium bowl, crush tomatoes with your hands. Add to olive oil; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Add parsley, salt, and pepper; reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Add hot sauce and garlic powder; cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Keep warm until ready to use.
• In a large bowl, toss wings with 1/2 cup of sauce. Serve immediately with remaining sauce on the side.

LEMONY ROASTED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Rinse potatoes with lukewarm water and pat dry.
• Spread chicken wings out on a baking sheet or cutting board in a single layer. Season both sides of wings generously with salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle with red-pepper flakes as desired.
• Transfer seasoned wings to a large bowl. Add olive oil, lemon slices, rosemary and garlic and toss well with (plastic-gloved) hands so everything is evenly coated.
• Place potatoes on the bottom of a roasting pan. Arrange seasoned wings over potatoes in a single layer. Add wine and cover pan tightly with foil.
• Bake, covered, for about 45 minutes, until potatoes are done. Remove foil and return the pan to the oven and bake about 20 minutes more, until wings are nicely browned. Using tongs, turn wings over and bake for another 20 minutes to brown the wings' other side. Sprinkle with dried oregano, and serve hot or at room temperature.
