Spice is Nice January 31, 2012

For our latest installment of Tuesday Wing Night, I give you:

Nice Spice Wings:

A delicious wing if there ever was one. The spice rub got nice and crunchy, while the chicken itself stayed incredibly juicy. I had three “C”s as my sides… a carrot, some celery, and couscous. Not particularly traditional, but oh to tasty.

Chris and I have been getting out recipes out of this book:

I probably shouldn’t be publishing her whole book, as Chris and I plan to work our way through the recipes. I will say that tonight’s wing had spices that included:

• cinnamon
• turmeric
• light brown sugar
• salt
• garlic powder
• onion powder
• cayenne pepper
• and black pepper

I will also tell you that these wings would have been even better if Chris and I had not forgotten to add in the brown sugar. The rub would have been a little more moist, and the sweetness that we could taste (from using cinnamon sugar) would have been a lot more pronounced. Definitely a wing that we would like to try again… actually following the recipe the next time!
