Y'all are making me really hungry. I waiting for our regular neighborhood dinner to be done - not my turn this time - BBQ ribs, wine, and whatever. I'm drooling on my keyboard now.

He starts out by baking them on a rack to allow the fat to drain away and make them really cripsy. Then he puts them in a bowl and pours a sauce over them that's made out of red Thai chili paste, honey, lime juice, and butter along with some other ingrediants.

OMG! They are to die for! I'll put the recipe up tomorrow or on Saturday.

I am SO behind on my computer related obligations!

Here's the recipe I promised!

NOTE EDITS in RED It was adjusted when Mike made up a batch last night.

RED CURRY-LIME CHICKEN WINGS

4 Pounds chicken wings, tips discarded, wings separated into 2 pieces
Olive oil
Salt & freshly ground pepper
6 Tablespoons unsalted butter (possibly a bit more)
1-1/2 to 2 Tablespoons of Thai red curry paste (we use Thai Kichen brand which in Tampa is avalaible in all supermarkets)
1+ Tablespoon honey
Juice and finely grated zest (peel) of 1 lime (get yourself a micro-plane zester from a place like Williams-Sonoma. These things are INCREDIBLE!)
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
1 Teaspoon Worcestershire (more or less)
Tabasco to taste (Mike uses about 1/2 teaspoon)

Preheat oven to 475F. Place wings, olive oil, salt and pepper in a large plastic bag and shake to coat the wings well.

Place wings on a rack and bake for about 40 minutes (more or less) depending on your tastes until they are well browned and crispy. Check them now and then and turn over about 1/2 way for even browning.

Meanwhile, blend the butter, curry paste, lime juice and zest, honey, soy sauce, worcestershire and Tabasco together in a small pan over low heat.

When the wings have reached desired crispiness and brownness, remove from oven and place in a large bowl. Drizzle the curry-line sauce over them and toss to coat well.

ENJOY! This would be a PERFECT dish to serve up for Fathers' Day ~ along with some homemade potato salad and corn on the cob.

Quick tip for any poultry. Put some Kosher salt , about three tablespoons to a gallon of water and soak the wings in it for a couple of hours. Takes the blood out and makes the meat juicy and tender. Rinse and dry them before cooking. Enhances any way you make them.

Absolutley, I do this with all poultry.

It is also a good idea to flip the wings so that both sides has a good coating of Old Bay. Cook the wings for a total of 40 minutes. Serve hot with Bleu Cheese and Celery.
