Wings for the Superbowl

In honor of the Superbowl, I decided to make some wings tonight. After all, that's the only real reason to watch, right? An excuse for wings! I'm finishing off the bottle of de Bortoli Petite Sirah tonight with them, so you can check out the rating on that from the previous post. It's holding up really well and works quite nicely with the wings.

About halfway through cooking the wings, I realized I had forgotten to get bleu cheese dressing for them - so I improvised! Glad I did, too. So here's the lovelies:

Want to make this meal?

Teriyaki Wings with Guacamole-Hummus Dip
For wings:
1 dozen chicken wings, tips cut off and split into drummettes and wings
2 tsp granulated garlic
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 stick butter
4 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp cayenne pepper

Combine garlic, salt, and paprika. Toss wings and drummettes with the salt mixture, cover, and marinate for an hour.

Heat deep fryer to 375. Deep-fry wings until golden brown - about 7 minutes. Remove and drain.

In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, then stir in remaining ingredients and mix well. Remove from heat. Toss wings with the sauce until thoroughly coated.

For dip:
Combine equal parts of your favorite hummus and guacamole until completely combined. Simple as that!

Serve with celery.

Enjoy!
