need a good chicken wing recipe

[tracyc]

hi,

im making chicken wings tonight, but i dont know how to do this. do i just deep fry them?? or are they better i the oven, i want crispy wings... do i add a marinade/spices before deepfrying?? can i do them in the oven... I've been searching the sites, but as i learned from the bbq sauce, the entire process is not always listed on a recipe site.

thanks

Re: need a good chicken wing recipe

You can deep fry them.

You can bake them.

There's no right or wrong way.

You might also want to invest in some low carb cookbooks ... the ones by Dana Carpender are good ... as are the ones by Atkins.

Linda's website should list the "how".

I made some last night for supper, and making the rest for tonight.

Deep fry those puppies, and toss them in a mix of 1/2 cup Franks Red Hot Sauce and 1/3 cup melted butter.

Insane. Crunchy and spicy and so good!

we just had them, i deep fried them, and then i put them in the oven for a bit.. put them in the bbq sauce i made yesterday, they were delicious, but my stomach is killing me now!!! too much on my stomach just yet, i shouldnt have tried them yet!! next time i make them when i am better, i will try your method, we love tony roma's hot sauce, no sugar and no carbs...

It does have carbs. If the ingredients have carbs, the sauce has carbs. I assume there are peppers and some spices among the ingredients.

Re: need a good chicken wing recipe

yes you are right, i read the label wrong 2grams of carbs per 18ml serving. ceyenne red peppers, vinegar, garlic and salt are the ingredients

Re: need a good chicken wing recipe

I like to deep fry them and after draining on kitchen paper, sprinkle them liberally with a mixture of half five-spice powder and half salt. Squeeze of lemon, if you like.
Yummmmmmmm!

Re: need a good chicken wing recipe

I steam my chicken wings - cool them - then bake them in high heat on parchment paper. Shake them in some Franks and butter and just am in heaven. (Oh yeah I need some blue cheese dressing to go with them)

Re: need a good chicken wing recipe

I bake them. It's really the sauce that makes the difference but you have to be careful. Alot of hot wing sauce report zero carbs (see Frank's Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce) but since they mostly use cayenne peppers that probably means there's some carbs in it - for instance it could be 0.5 carbs per tablespoon so that adds up if you slather the wings in sauce. Therefore, I try to be "frugal" in the sauce and figure 12 wings probably means about six carbs - which ain't bad. You can "water" down the sauce by heating it up and adding in additional butter and vinegar but that's more trouble than its worth unless you are still in induction.

i am still in induction. the wings lastnight were ok, but i found there was too much of a mustard flavour from the bbq sauce recipe i found online. thanks everyone.
