HOT WINGS for superbowl

our friend HURLA is wanting to make "healthier" hot wings for the big game today. I do not like breaded wings, nor do I want to fry them. However, I want the skin to be crispy because there is nothing worse than slimy skin on a hot wing! Any pointers?

Thanks,


simplest way, lower fat...

Ingrediants
2 Dozen Chicken Wings
3 Tablespoons Chili Powder
½ Teaspoon of Garlic Powder
¼ Cup of Catsup
½ Cup Steak Sauce
Salt & Pepper to Taste
½ Cup of Orange Juice
¼ Bottle of Hot Sauce or I like to use Picante’ Sauce (measure More/Less to Taste)

Cup of Light or fat free Ranch Dressing

Combine chili powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper. Stir in steak sauce, catsup, picante & orange juice.

Mix well, until smooth.

Marinate wings in sauce for about one hour.

Arrange wings in a foil-lined pan; cover with marinate sauce. Bake in a pre-heated 350-degree oven for approximately twenty minutes, or in microwave on high for about 6 minutes – until juices run clear. Serve with ranch dressing.

or grilled/broiled indoors

Ingredients

* 2 pounds chicken wings, tips discarded
* 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* salt and ground black pepper to taste
* 1 cup honey
* 1/2 cup butter, melted
* 1/2 cup hot sauce

Directions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil grate.
2. Wash the wings well and pat dry with paper towel. Season the meat with cayenne, salt, and pepper.
3. Cook the chicken wings on preheated grill until cooked through and juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the wings. Brush the wings liberally using 1/2 cup of honey while they are cooking.
4. Melt the butter, pour into a large bowl and mix in the remaining 1/2 cup of honey and hot sauce. Remove the wings from the grill and immediately toss them in the hot honey butter sauce to coat. Serve the wings 'wet' or return them to the grill for 1 minute per side to set the sauce.
