Sriracha Honey Wings with Cilantro Blue Cheese

Some of the best advice I was given about creating menus and recipes was "Stay true to who you are, your food will taste false." Keeping this in mine, I was really in the mood for some wings this week. So well I made wings. I decided to combine my standard recipe that I use, which peope love, with Sriracha which brings it own flavor profile to the table. I am very happy with the results, and it goes great with the Cilantro-Blue Cheese Dressing (that recipe is just previous to this one).


Sriracha Honey Wings


If when you taste the sauce you find it a little to spicy for you, instead of adding more honey, try adding some dark brown sugar. It is a very nice addition that give the flavor a different twist. Instead of just salt and pepper, use your favorite spice rub, adds a lot of flavor.
Oven Temperature: 400°F

2 Lbs chicken wings
¼ Cup Olive Oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
¼ Cup Sriracha
¼ Cup butter (no substitutes), melted
