When I think of wings Im used to Hooters or Buffalo Wild Wings. I love them spicy or flavored... but alas, Julien doesn't prefer spicy food, and likes bbq, which I hate. lol. SO, I made him bbq wings and then made my favorite recipe for Buffaflo Wild Wings - the parmesan garlic.
Now none of the recipes really match one another when I googled it or looked at copycat recipes. So, I tested one based off of the ingredients shown on the BWW website.
Here is my tweaked version!
4 garlic cloves - roasted (drizzle some evoo, wrap up in foil, and place in oven 350F 20 min)
Once cool, finely mince.
In a bowl, add to the garlic:
1 tsp EVOO
1/2 cup mayo
1 Tbsp sugar
1/3 cup parmesan
1 Tbsp vinegar
1 tsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 and 1/2 tsp italian herbs - I just bought it already combined
and 1/8 tsp black pepper
Finally melt 8 Tbsp of butter and add to the mixture.
Voila! Fry your chicken in a cup of oil and then once they are out of the oil on a paper toweled plate and dried, just dip into the sauce and place on the plate! Its that easy.
To go with the wings I made a version of cornbread.
1 1/2 cups cornmeal
2 1/2 cups milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup of creamed corn added
Just mix dry ingredients separate from the wet ones because thats what makes the texture and heighth. Once mixed, add the two and combine in about 12 turns of a wooden spoon. Pour into a prepared pan - most people use a 9x9, but I have a silicone loaf pan I prefer - and bake 400F for 20 minutes. Basically look for the top to be lightly brown. Voila! You can add jalapeno slices if you want some spice, but I keep it basic so I can eat it with dinner, or add honeybutter to make it dessert!
