Introduction Ghost Pepper Chicken Wings
This is a recipe for the most delicious and famous wing of all time, the Ghost Pepper Chicken Wings. A classic combination of sweet and spicy. The Ghost Pepper Wings was created in 1934 by James Suckling in San Antonio, Texas, and has been making history ever since. It was first used back in 1936 on an American Airlines flight from New York to Chicago. This recipe will help you create perfect homemade version of this iconic dish using only four ingredients, which are: white sugar, garlic powder, salt, and onion powder.
History of the Recipe
The origin of the Ghost Pepper Chicken Wings can be traced to James Suckling’s invention. In the late 1930s, he started selling chicken feathers to airlines for cheap, but with the rising demand for more expensive poultry meat, farmers could not supply them. So, they had to start buying eggs. Which would then be cleaned and processed to make a product that resembled the taste and texture of real birds.
He then used some of these eggshells to make his signature sauce and eventually ended up using a lot of it, as well. That made him very popular among customers, who became so enamored with his unique flavor that they sought out other people to buy their own products. At the same time, he also noticed that many cooks were struggling to find enough leftovers for their meals – so Suckling decided to create the Ghost Pepper Wings recipe.
Ingredients & Preparation
1 pound of ground chicken, or any type you want (but not too much, as some can become fussy)
1 cup of fresh ginger, minced
1/2 cup of brown sugar
Salt and black pepper to taste (to season your chicken)
1 large yellow onion, sliced into rings (or one large onion, depending on how big you want the pieces to be)
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 table spoon soy sauce
1 spoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tea spoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups of water
Instructions Ghost Pepper Chicken Wings
Place the chicken meat into a blender jar and mix everything together until smooth. Then add the remaining ingredients, pour over all of the liquid ingredients, shake thoroughly, and set aside for 30 minutes. After this period, the mixture should be ready to use. You can now either put it in a pan and heat over medium-low heat or refrigerate it for at least 3 hours. If you’re planning on serving it cold, place it on top of a plate. Cover it with plastic wrap, and leave it out of direct sunlight for about 30 minutes.
Add the oil and mix until it reaches the desired consistency. Add the onions and cook until they begin to soften, stirring occasionally. Once this is done, then add the garlic, chicken, and all of the sauces and stir until well combined. Pour over the rest of the ingredients and mix. Serve immediately, or let it sit for 30 minutes before putting it in the fridge.
Tips & Tricks
If you’re going to serve your finished products hot, just keep the temperature low enough to prevent them from getting soggy. Alternatively, if you’re planning on eating them cold, just keep the temperature high enough to keep the food from getting mushy, but not so warm that it won’t taste good.
