Asian Wings




I made some delicious wings tonight!  Personally, I hate to deep fry anything, because it makes the entire house smell like grease.  But, Chuck doesn't like them as well when I bake and broil them.  So, I deep fried the chicken wings in peanut oil, until they were nice and crispy.

It was the sauce that really made the recipe, though.  Here's what I did.  In a small saucepan, I melted half of a stick of butter.  Then, I added 1/2 to 3/4 cup of artificial honey (use regular honey, if you can have sugar.  Chuck can't), about 1/2 a bottle of Sriracha hotsauce, 1 tbsp of sesame oil, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1/4 cup of lime juice, 1 tsp of extract of orange, and 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter (I use the all natural kind).  Then to your taste, use:  garlic, crushed red pepper, ginger, and Chinese Five Spice. 

Then, simply cover the wings in the sauce.  So good!!!  I made 20 wings, and still had plenty of sauce left over.  I'm thinking it would be delicious over some ramen noodles (just the noodles, no liquid).  Or, for a vegan-friendly meal, leave the butter out of the recipe, and substitute with peanut oil.  Then, make sure the noodles are vegan.
