0:00
- Okay y'all. (chuckling)
0:05
I'm separating chicken wings,
0:09
and this little glove comes with our-
0:12
- [Theresa] Mandolin.
0:14
So cut down when you're cutting yourself.
0:18
It's some kind of steel or something
0:20
where you can't cut through it,
0:22
right Teresa? - [Theresa] Yep.
0:23
- I'm not going test it by doing that.
0:25
- [Theresa] Yeah, please don't.
0:27
You know, it's hard to find chicken wings
0:29
that's already been separated,
0:34
so that's what I'm doing right now.
0:40
You know, the two pieces.
0:45
This is what I call a flapper,
0:47
and that's my favorite part of the chicken wing.
0:51
So, we got Christmas behind us,
0:54
so, y'all may be starting to think
1:00
about maybe chucking a little of that Christmas weight.
1:08
This one is pretty good 'cause we are doing it...
1:11
We're doing our hot wings in the air fryer,
1:12
and this is one of Jamie, my son's,
1:16
favorite hot wing recipe.
1:19
So I've got my pepper, and I got me a big bowl, y'all,
1:23
so I can toss it good.
1:32
Okay, I'm gonna put a little of that back.
1:39
to toss it in, and that'll help them get, like crispy,
1:43
you know what I mean?
1:44
And I'm doing these in the air fryer.
1:48
Aunt Peggy said the best wing she's ever eaten,
1:53
I've always cooked them in my air fryer.
1:55
So it comes out really, really good.
1:58
Alright, so we got 'em seasoned.
1:59
I'm gonna put 'em in the air fryer,
2:01
and I'm gonna cook them totally done, you know,
2:04
until they're nice and crisp.
2:07
And then we gone make a glazed to go on them,
2:10
and I think this is Jamie, my son's, favorite part
2:18
So in the air fryer 20, 30 minutes, I don't know.
2:24
You'll just have to check 'em, y'all.
2:28
My air fryers are nice in room world.
2:33
And you wanna place your chicken skin side up.
2:39
So, like perfect, there we go.
2:43
Theresa, you wanna sweat that one in?
2:45
- [Theresa] Certainly.
2:46
- [Paula] I have two air fryers in my kitchen y'all.
2:48
And quite often you'll find both
2:50
of 'em going at the same time.
2:53
'cause I'm definitely an air fryer girl.
2:57
While our wings are cooking, I'm gonna go ahead
3:00
and start the sauce because it's going need to cook down
3:03
'cause we kinda want a little sticky, you know,
3:05
so it would stick to those, those hot wings.
3:08
And Jamie said do not use a diet ginger ale, mom.
3:13
Use the real thing, so that's what we doing.
3:17
Apparently he likes craft ginger beer reads all natural
3:25
I don't know what the extra is.
3:33
And then- - Well, I owe you some like...
3:37
And then I'm putting in brown ginger and that ginger.
3:47
So, I put this on, get that butter melt.
3:53
Okay, so I've got my butter, hand stick of butter,
4:05
And Jamie tells me to cook that over pretty high heat
4:08
for about one minute until it gets fragrant
4:13
I'm smelling that ginger.
4:20
- It's gonna be so good.
4:29
And I think it been about a minute.
4:31
So I'm gonna go ahead and add our ginger ale.
4:40
Wow, two bottles is a lot isn't it Theresa?
4:50
- [Theresa] Yes ma'am. Two bottles
4:51
Two 12 ounce bottles.
4:53
- Okay, this is gonna have
4:54
to really cook down a good while, isn't it?
5:01
Ginger ale is good if you have like an up upset tummy.
5:11
Drink some ginger ale
5:12
and that kind of fix what's (indistinct) you.
5:16
Right now, I got a fourth of a cup of honey
5:19
that I've just poured in
5:24
and now I've got fresh lime juice.
5:30
Two tablespoons and two tablespoons of soy sauce.
5:34
Soy sauce, soy sauce.
5:36
How does Michael say it?
5:40
Well I hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas
5:51
I hope. I hope, I hope.
5:58
which is always a good thing, ain't it?
6:01
- [Theresa] Yes, the holidays are tough.
6:06
As much as you love them, they can be very, very hard.
6:10
- [Theresa] And this was so short
6:12
in between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year.
6:16
- I know, it seems like Thanksgiving was like day
6:21
All right, I'm going to shop a little green onion
6:30
I don't know how Michael feels about garnish.
6:32
He said just gimme an extra shrink or an extra wing.
6:39
That's something pretty on me,
6:40
plus, it's a nice, nice flavor.
6:45
So 30 minutes on the sauce for it to thicken,
6:49
stirring it every now and again,
6:51
and then probably about that long on the wings.
6:55
And halfway through, I'm gonna flip my chicken over
7:03
and I'll probably be spraying it just
7:05
to make sure it's nice and crispy.
7:08
Okay y'all, I'm gonna give you a little tip
7:13
and I'm gonna tell my son, Jamie,
7:15
that my glaze, I let it reduce down
7:19
but it didn't get like sticky and thick enough for me.
7:26
You can sprinkle this straight on top
7:29
and it will blend, it won't lump, it's just perfect.
7:33
So, I would put a little bit and then stir
7:37
and put a little bit and stir.
7:39
So this is the consistency
7:42
that I would like a glaze at.
7:45
So our wings, I do not like soft wings.
7:51
So I cooked them probably,
7:56
gosh, at least 30 minutes y'all,
8:00
and I did not have to turn 'em.
8:03
Since the skin was skin side up.
8:08
I wanted to keep it that way.
8:12
And look at this dish, I'm gonna put 'em in.
8:16
Do you know where I got this y'all?
8:19
Have y'all seen my angel father John?
8:23
He's a Catholic priest, a friend of ours
8:26
and he throws pottery
8:30
and Father John made that for me,
8:32
so I think this'll be perfect for our wings.
8:36
So I'm just gonna stir those around
8:39
and make sure they're all covered.
8:43
And our ginger ale glaze.
8:47
Now your wings, if you don't like yours extra crispy,
8:53
I would say don't cook 'em as long as I did,
8:56
but you can look at 'em
8:58
and tell when you open your air fryer if they would,
9:02
where you would like 'em,
9:10
- Yes, I mean these look wonderful.
9:20
and the hot wings probably about the same time length.
9:30
Sticky, sticky, sticky, just the way I like them.
9:40
- [Eddy] Mhm, they look great.
9:42
- Yes, and I love 'em in Father John's dish.
9:56
Have I got room for another one somewhere?
10:05
Whoa, get back out of there.
10:13
Okie doke, I got four more,
10:16
but we gonna make do with this
10:21
and I'm just gonna garnish 'em with some of
10:23
that wonderful green onion top.
10:37
How good does this look?
10:52
A little extra sauce for dipping.
11:01
And that have cooked the perfect length of time for me.
11:07
And that's what you wanna do.
11:10
You wanna please yourself.
11:14
Mm, and I'm real pleased.
11:17
Mm, delicious y'all.
11:22
Mm, Happy New Year y'all.
11:28
I hope everything good comes your way.
