Directions
-
Wear rubber gloves to protect your hands from the intense capsaicin. In a blender, carefully puree the sorano chilies, red chilies, jalapenos, white wine, vinegar, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper until smooth.
-
Place the chicken wings in a large bowl or container. Pour the puree over the wings, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 5 days to marinate.
-
Preheat your oven broiler. Remove the wings from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Place wings on a broiler pan.
-
Broil the wings for approximately 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred.
-
While wings broil, combine the remaining marinade, Tabasco sauce, Worcestershire sauce, Durkee red-hot sauce, and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce until thickened.
-
Remove wings from the oven. Brush generously with the hot sauce mixture. Return to the broiler for 5 more minutes to glaze.
-
Serve immediately with plenty of ice water and soda water on the side.
Note
Safety First: The fumes from blending these chilies can be intense. Ensure good ventilation and consider wearing eye protection.
Storage: Marinated wings should not be frozen if you plan to broil them after 5 days. If storing cooked wings, keep refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Substitution: If you cannot find sorano chilies, substitute with habaneros or Scotch bonnets for similar heat levels.
Tip: For those sensitive to extreme heat, reduce the amount of cayenne and Tabasco by half, though the title may no longer apply!
