After spending years trying to perfect the chicken wing i finally figured it out. The best wings will be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Most people deep fry their wings which makes them crispy on the outside and hard on the inside.
For the perfect wings follow this simple process step by step.
Steam 10 whole chicken wings on a high heat for 10-15 mins. I just used a layered vegetable steamer. Remove the wings and place them on a plate with 3 or 4 sheets of kitchen paper underneath them. Cover the wings with 1 more sheet of kitchen paper and place them in the fridge for at least 90 mins.
After 90 mins preheat the oven to 200 degrees. With a sharp knife cut the wings at the joint. Place the 20 wings on a rack and place them into a roasting tray with tinfoil on the bottom shiny side up.
Put the wings into the oven and leave them for 20 mins. Turn each wing individually and put the back into the oven for another 20 mins.
For the sauce i recommend Franks Red Hot Sauce. Mix around 150ml of the sauce with around 30g of melted butter.
Remove the wings from the oven and place them into a large bowl. Pour the sauce over them and mix well, make sure all the wings are coated. Pour them into a bowl and serve them with a cold beer.

Mate, the wings are delish!
ReplyDeleteWhats the deal with putting hot steamed wings into a fridge straight away?
Is it not dangerous putting hot foods into the fridge?
Great recipe though.
@Ruker It's not bad to put hot food in the fridge. You must be Irish, I know I am and used to think the same, but not a single foreigner I've met thinks it!
