Asian-Style Hot Wings

 

Ingredients:

Asian-Style Hot Wings

3 lbs chicken wings (excluding wing tips )
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ Chinese five spice
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
½ cup sugar
¼ cup mirin
1 cup orange juice

Peach & Mango Salsa

2 peaches, diced
2 mango, diced
1 vine ripened tomato (medium size), diced
2 serrano chilies, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped green onions
4 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons lime juice
¼ cup cilantro
Salt and pepper to taste

Wonton cups

24 wonton wrappers

 

Directions:

To make Asian hot-wings:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking sheet with foil.

Evenly season chicken wings with salt and pepper. Bake for about 35 minutes or until evenly browned.

While wings are baking, make the sauce by combining the remaining ingredients in a skillet over medium heat.

Bring to boil, stirring every so often until the sugar is dissolved and sauce is reduced to syrup, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. (Reserve 4-5 tablespoons for brushing on top of finished baked wings.)

Remove the wings from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.

Place the wings in a large, heat-proof bowl and toss in syrup until evenly coated. Place a wire rack on a foil-lined bake sheet, then place syrup coated wings on top and bake for another 20-25 minutes.

Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes before brushing reserved syrup on top.

To make Peach & Mango Salsa:

Place peaches, mango, tomato, Serrano chilies, green onions, cilantro and lime juice in a bowl and toss. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

To make wonton cups:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cover mini-muffin wells with bake spray.

Brush wonton wrappers with canola oil, then gently push wrapper into muffin wells to create a cup.

Bake until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes. Remove baked wonton cups from pan and transfer to a wire rack for cooling.
