Mediterranean Chile Chicken Wings Food

ROASTED CHICKEN WINGS MARINATED IN CALABRIAN CHILE SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the wings to a 4-quart plastic food storage container. Cover the wings with the Chicken Brine. Place a plate on top of the wings to keep them submerged, and allow the wings to brine for 4 hours in the refrigerator.
• Strain the brine from the wings and discard the brine. Place the wings back in the empty food storage container and cover with 32 ounces of the Calabrian Chile Diavola Sauce. Mix the wings to coat in the wing sauce and marinate for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F with one oven rack set in the middle level for roasting the wings and another rack set to the upper level of the oven for broiling. Cover a large sheet pan with foil and brush with the olive oil to prevent the wings from sticking. Arrange the marinated chicken wings evenly on the sheet pan; be sure not to stack them. Roast the chicken wings for 15 minutes, then flip the wings over and place them back in the oven. Continue roasting the wings until the internal temperature has reached 160 degrees F when probed with a meat thermometer (avoiding bone), an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven and rest it on top of the range. Set the oven to broil on the highest setting. Meanwhile, add all the roasted wings to a large mixing bowl. Add the Calabrian chiles, garlic and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary to the wings. Toss a couple of times to coat the wings, then place them back on the sheet pan evenly. Broil the wings to create a little char on them, turning after 5 to 7 minutes to hit the other side.
• Arrange them on a large platter and scrape any remaining rosemary, garlic and chiles left on the pan over the wings. Arrange the celery sticks on the platter around the wings and have 6 saucers of the Doughgonzola dipping sauce and 6 saucers of the remaining Dough's Calabrian Chile Diavola Sauce ready for your guests. Sprinkle the remaining rosemary over the platter and the dipping sauces for a nice color burst of flavor.
• Make it look nice, you worked so hard! Good job.
• Combine the hot water, salt, garlic, honey, peppercorns, parsley, rosemary, thyme, bay leaves and lemon zest and juice in a large pot and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring to dissolve the salt. Remove from the heat and chill until cold.
• Add the olive oil to a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat. When the oil begins to appear wavy in the pan, add 15 ounces Calabrian chiles, the minced garlic and chopped onions. Saute until the onions become translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add 4 cups water and bring to a boil on high heat; reduce to a simmer and cook until the liquid has reduced by a quarter and the flavors have developed, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
• Puree the mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth, scraping down the sides to capture any ingredients that stick. Continue blending the sauce and slowly add the vinegar until the mixture comes together as a sauce. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Add the reserved 5 ounces chopped Calabrian chiles for garnish. Place in a storage container and store in refrigerator.
• Process the buttermilk, sour cream, mayonnaise, Gorgonzola dolce and garlic in a food processor until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl and add the crumbled Gorgonzola. Blend with a spatula until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Store the dipping sauce in the refrigerator.

APPLE-SMOKED CHILE LIME CHICKEN WINGS WITH SRIRACHA SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the chicken wings in the Brine in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
• Remove the chicken wings, then rinse with water and dry with paper towels. Place in a large bowl. Drizzle the lime juice and oil over the chicken and toss to coat. Sprinkle the chili powder and 1 tablespoon salt over the wings and toss again.
• Wrap 1 cup soaked and drained apple wood chips in a foil packet and poke holes on top. Place the foil packet underneath the grill grates of a grill, directly on top of the heating element. Preheat the grill on medium-high heat and let the smoke build for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Grill the chicken wings over direct heat, covered, until golden brown on the underside, 5 to 7 minutes. Flip and cook until the juices run clear and the internal temperature is 165 degrees F, another 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with Sriracha Soy Sauce and Smoked Corn and Black Bean Salad.
• Combine the apple cider, brown sugar, cider vinegar, honey, bay leaf, 1/4 cup salt, a pinch black pepper and 1 cup water in a medium pot. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until the sugars and salt have dissolved, approximately 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and cool completely in the refrigerator.
• Whisk together the sriracha, mayonnaise and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the salad: Preheat a charcoal grill for cooking at medium-high heat. Place 1 cup soaked and drained apple wood chips directly on the coals.
• Rub the corn with the corn oil. Grill, turning occasionally, for approximately 15 minutes. Let cool, then cut the kernels off the cobs into a large bowl. Mix in the black beans, bell peppers, onion and jalapeno.
• Make the dressing: Whisk together the corn oil, cilantro, vinegar, lime juice, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
• Pour the dressing over the salad, then cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS RECIPE, MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a large food processor fitted with a blade, combine the onion, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice and spices. Pulse until well combined into a thick marinade.
• Season the chicken wings well with Kosher salt and put them in a zip top bag. Pour the marinade over and zip the bag shut. Massage the bag a bit to distribute the marinade.
• Lay the bag of wings flat on a large plate or tray. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours, turning the bag over once midway through.
• Heat a gas grill to 425 degrees F and lightly oil the grates.
• Shake off excess marinate then arrange the wings over direct heat. Cover the grill and cook the wings for 15 to 20 minutes, turning over every 5 minutes, until they are fully cooked through. Grill the lemons, flesh side down.
• Serve the wings immediately with the grilled lemons. And squeeze the lemons all over to your liking. Add your favorite sauce for dipping (I like the coolness of Tzatziki yogurt cucumber sauce).

MEDITERRANEAN CHILE CHICKEN WINGS

Dust the wings with the seasoning mixture and toss in a bowl to evenly coat. Add the wings to the oil in batches and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
• For the glaze: In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, chipotle in adobo, honey and Dijon mustard. To a small saute pan, add the butter and melt. Add the melted butter to the bowl with the vinegar-honey mixture and stir to combine.
