Who doesn’t love pancakes? Best. Breakfast. Ever! I’m not going to lie, there were times when I was younger that I would eat them for like a week straight. My mom can attest to this. Pancake binges y’all! When you’re trying to keep it healthy…
We’re going to tap into our inner child for a moment for this tasty treat. The unbeatable combination of chocolate and peanut butter joined into a scrumptious molten lava cake. I’ll give you (and me) a second to take that in. A molten lava cake…
Wings are a favorite for me. Buffalo wings, boneless wings, you name it, I can’t get enough wings. These wings in particular though are THE favorite. That’s how good they are.
It took me a bit to get the sauce just right adding things here and there each time I made them to get the perfect combination. I’m happy to announce…mission accomplished! I also always use a little trick with baking powder to get the skin on wings extra crispy without having to fry them, and it worked magic with these wings.
It’s really the Asian fusion situation that takes these wings to the next level. These babies are loaded with flavor, on top of flavor, on top of flavor. A perfect balance of sweet and spicy. Your mouth will thank you and so will anyone else that gets their hands on them. Just make sure you make extra because you will definitely be going back for more.
2 tablespoons Sambal Oelek or Sriracha, or to taste
1-2 tablespoons cilantro, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425⁰F
Line a large baking sheet with foil then set a baking rack on the foil.
Pat the wings dry
In a resealable plastic bag or paper bag, place half of the baking powder, salt, pepper, and half of the wings. Shake and massage the wings to cover each wing evenly. Repeat with next batch.
Place wings on the baking rack being sure no wings are touching and bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through.
While wings are baking, make the sauce.
In a medium bowl mix together the oil, aminos, ginger, garlic, lime zest and juice, and sambal oelek (or chili paste of choice). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
While the wings finish cooking, toast the sesame seeds over low heat until fragrant and a slight golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once wings have finished baking, add the sesame seeds and cilantro to the sauce and mix well.
Work in batches placing 4-5 wings at a time in the bowl with the sauce to coat.
Risotto is decadent and rich. It’s a hard dish to recreate without rice and butter to get a nice creaminess. I had come to terms that risotto was just one of those dishes I’d have to indulge in on a rare occasion. But why?! There…
Lasagna is a staple comfort food for me, but is a very rare occurrence because it’s so heavy and just full of things that I can’t eat on a regular basis. I’m happy to tell you, that is not the case any longer! I have…
