Crispy Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings

Do you ever just have a random craving for chicken wings?! I do! Chicken wings can be soooo expensive at restaurants, and often times they're just not up to my standards (i.e. seasoning is off/ wings are soggy). My husband found this amazing recipe for wings. I totally recommend this recipe because it's cheap, doesn't take too long, AND they are nice and crispy!!!

Crispy Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings

Ingredients 

2 Tablespoons baking powder

1 Tablespoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

2 1/2 lbs chicken wing sections

Honey Sriracha Glaze 

1/3 cup honey

1/3 cup Sriracha sauce

1 Tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar

1/4 teaspoon sesame oil

1 pinch sesame seeds, or as desired


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an oven-proof wire rack over the foil.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Place the chicken in a large bowl. Then toss and coat the chicken with about 1/2 of the dry mixture. Sprinkle  the remaining mixture over the wings and toss to coat again. Place the wings onto the wire rack.

3. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn wings and continue baking for another 20 minutes. Turn wings again and bake until they are browned and crispy, about 15 minutes more.
Transfer wings to a large bowl.

Glaze:

1. In a small bowl, whisk honey, Sriracha sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil together until the glaze is  smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the wings and toss to coat. Transfer the wings to a serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Note: I left the glaze in the bowl, separate from the wings because it's a bit spicy! The wings taste great even without the sauce!

Crock Pot Pork Tenderloin

Image
I agree with the recipe title for this main meat dish: Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker. I found this recipe (well actually my husband Mark found it) on http://allrecipes.com .  Ingredients: 1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin 1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix 1 cup water 3/4 cup red wine 3 tablespoons minced garlic 3 tablespoons soy sauce ground black pepper (to taste) Directions (adapted from http://allrecipes.com/recipe/amazing-pork-tenderloin-in-the-slow-cooker/ ): Place the pork tenderloin ( we bought ours from Trader Joe's) in the crock pot with the contents of the soup mix. Pour the water, wine (we used Charles Shaw red table wine from Trader Joe's; it was only about 4 dollars!), and soy sauce over the top, turning the pork to coat. Carefully spread the garlic over the pork, leaving as much on top of the roast while cooking as possible. Sprinkle with pepper. Cover. Cook on low setting for four hours. Serve with cooking liquid on the side as au jus....
