Description

These wings are not for the faint of heart. Marinated for five days in a potent blend of whole red chili peppers, jalape&# 195;±os, white wine, vinegar, and heavy doses of hot sauces, they deliver an aggressive, lingering heat. The long marinade ensures the flavor penetrates deep into the meat, while broiling creates a charred, crispy exterior. The final glaze, reduced from the marinade with a touch of sugar, adds a sticky, sweet counterpoint to the overwhelming spice. Best served with plenty of soda water or ice water to cool the palate. This is an extreme culinary challenge designed for those who seek the ultimate burn.

Directions

  1. In a blender, carefully puree the red chili peppers, jalapeno peppers, white wine, vinegar, Tabasco Sauce, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, Durkee red-hot sauce, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  2. Place the chicken wings in a large bowl or container and pour the puree over them, ensuring all pieces are thoroughly coated.
  3. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 5 days, turning the wings occasionally to ensure even marination.
  4. After 5 days, remove the wings from the refrigerator and carefully drain off the excess marinade, reserving it for the glaze.
  5. Preheat the broiler. Arrange the marinated wings on a broiler pan or wire rack set over a baking sheet.
  6. Broil the wings for approximately 15 minutes, or until fully cooked and slightly charred, turning once halfway through.
  7. While the wings broil, pour the reserved marinade into a saucepan and add the sugar.
  8. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat, bringing it to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.
  9. Pour the thickened glaze over the broiled wings.
  10. Return the wings to the broiler for about 5 more minutes to caramelize the glaze.
  11. Serve immediately with soda water or ice water on the side.
