Carfagna's, our Italian speciality store, has wonderful meat and fish along with various products as well as local fruits and vegetables. It's a family store, small crowded but filled with loyal fans. Once a year they have a great big meat sale and people come from all over to fill their freezers with their fabulous selections. I bought a lot, as usual. One thing I like from them would be the chicken wings, so I bought several packages and today, found this recipe on Mennonite Girls Can Cook. I had a favorite recipe for wings from the old Steak and Ale restaurant but the chicken has to marinate for three days and I don't take that long with anything any more, even green bananas...you never know.
Crispy with a sticky coating....oh so good! A great backyard party food.
- 2 pounds wings
- 4 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp coarse salt
- 1/2 tsp coarse pepper
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 cup Franks Hot Sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp butter
- Wash wings and pat dry.
- In a ziplock bag shake together cornstarch, salt, pepper and paprika.
- Add wings to bag and shake well to coat.
- Place in a single layer in a glass pan. If not grilling right aways cover and store in refrigerator for up to several hours.
- Heat grill to 400ยบ. Cook wings over indirect heat for 1 hour, turning 3-4 times. (we use our Big Green Egg grill which keeps meat so moist, but you can use any BBQ)
- 10 minutes before wings come off grill, heat the Franks, sugar and butter in a sauce pan until the sugar is completely dissolved, and has cooked together slowly for about 10 minutes.
- Remove wings from grill and place directly into sauce. Stir to coat and serve.
