Right, last time I had the most amazing chicken wings was with the incredible Sean Evans.
And thankfully 75 million of you tuned in to watch that amazing program. So thank you. So I'm going
to show you how to perfect the most amazing wing. This time I'm going to take it up a notch and make
those wings incredibly delicious. So beautiful wings, make sure they're full of flesh. Sometimes
you get a little bit of chef if you want with a presentation bone, but they need seasoning,
okay. So in here I've got a little bit of garlic powder, a little bit of salt and nicely dust
those wings, okay. Now from there let's get a bit of heat, a nice spoon of beautiful smoked paprika,
okay. Now what does that do? That literally just starts to give these wings a lovely coat
and be generous, okay. Give that a nice mix, the salt, the garlic powder and that amazing smoked
paprika. That smokiness gives them the sort of richness but without being too spicy. Now from
there, once they're beautifully mixed, wash the hands. Now once it's all nicely mixed in,
just do another light dusting there as well, just on top. Garlic powder and the salt over there.
Get a pan, a nice hot pan, bring it up to temp, a little tablespoon of oil.
Literally in with your wings. Now at this point we need to sear them, okay, and get
and get fucked up. The secret here is give them a really nice sear, okay. A bit of butter,
cool them down, that gets it really nice and golden brown and just roll them round quickly.
Now you can see what's happening to the wings, got a really nice dark caramelised
take, those spices. Butter adds the flavour, a little bit more richness,
helps to cool down the wings. Beautiful. So this bit here with all the butter,
all that really nice seizing, look. So what happens now is that the actual flesh starts to
move down the bone and almost becomes like a little lollipop which is great for picking up.
Don't worry about that flesh and that skin sliding down. Now clearly we've got a great sear
from there. One more little toss and a nice seasoning of black pepper. Open up the top
of the pepper mill and get that nice large cracked pepper in there.
I love sautéing chicken wings when they're sort of nice and hot, they take the pepper so much easier
as opposed to putting it on at the beginning. Look, beautiful. Now once we've seared in all
that beautiful spice and those wings have been dredged in the paprika, the garlic powder, the
salt, okay, as that starts to froth it tells you it's time for the oven. 375 Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.
That smell is incredible. Now have a look at them. So this is where the magic starts,
you can see the actual skin and flesh has sort of slid down the bone and
you can tell they're cooked. I think they've obviously got, but most importantly the bone
is nice and clean. Now from there just in. Now to glaze them, first of all take a spoon and just take
a large tablespoon of that beautiful juice. From there get your hot sauce
give a really good shake, as you know it settles in the bottle, get a really good shake and then just gently
drip that over there. But how do we get them nice and glossy? How do we put that nice little glaze
on there? Get a nice knob of butter and literally put the butter in there. Your tongs
and then literally one more little tablespoon over. Now give them a really nice mix. Now what's
happening now is the butter's melting, okay, and they get really nice and glazed and look beautiful.
Mix that up. Now you don't want too much hot sauce on there because you always go back
for seconds but the secret is to beautifully mix them up and look the butter
beautifully melts, gives that a really nice beautiful glaze and watch.
Get the wings in, beautiful, and there you've got the most amazing wings and there you have
the most amazing hot spicy wings ready for another 75 million views.
