The "Big Game": Sriracha Hot wings

With the "Big Game" just around the corner, I figured it would be a good time to post something tasty.  Here is a recipe for Sriracha hot wings that I have been making for years.  They are savory and only slightly spicy (depending on how much sriracha you use!) and are usually gobbled up in seconds...YUM!

This recipe (and photo!) is brought to you by whiteonricecouple.com 

ingredients:

• about 2 pounds chicken wings, lightly coated with oil (or ready to cook wings)
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 cloves finely minced garlic
• about 1 small onion, minced (1/2 cup)
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup Sriracha hot sauce or any chili hot sauce (or more for a spicier sauce)
• 1 tablespoon vinegar
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425° F.
2. On baking sheet, spread chicken wings out on sheet and lightly coat wings with vegetable oil. Bake in oven for about 20 minutes, then flip chicken wings over and bake for about another 20 minutes, or until fully cooked and crispy brown.
3. In sauce pan, heat the 2 tablespoons  of vegetable oil and add onion and garlic. On medium heat, continue stirring the onions and garlic until they are golden brown, but not burnt. Allowing the onions and garlic to reach a golden brown stage will bring out the extra fragrance and flavor. Then add ketchup, sriracha hot sauce, vinegar, fish/soy sauce and ground cumin.
4. Stir well and let simmer for about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.  After chicken wings have finished baking, toss wings in sauce.

Happy "Big Game" Day and oh yeah...Go Broncos!
