Chicken wings

My family loves chicken wings. Actually, let me amend that a little. The boys love chicken wings. Doug loves spicy, tangy boneless chicken wings. And my goal was to clean out the freezer. So wings it was tonight. However, I really want to make Doug like them. I decided to spice his up.

First, I always bake the wings on a cookie sheet. I season them really well with salt, pepper and garlic powder. I cook them until they are brown, turn them over and cook them some more. When they are done, I turn the broiler on for about five minutes. I think the whole process is about 45 minutes to an hour.

While they were cooking, I fixed the sauces. First, I melted two sticks of butter and added a couple of tablespoons (or more) of minced garlic. My family LOVES garlic and the wings for Jesse and I were garlic parmesan.

For Doug's spicy wings, I took some of the melted garlic butter, added barbeque sauce and two types of pepper sauce -- a jalapeno one and louisiana hot sauce. I warmed it up on the stove in a small saucepan.

When the wings came out of the oven, I put all but Doug's in the skillet in the garlic butter. I coated them well then took some out and put them in a bowl with teriyaki sauce. I covered the bowl with plastic wrap, heated it in the microwave for one minute. When I took it out, I tossed the wings in the sauce to make sure they were coated.

Doug's wings went directly into the saucepan with his sauce.

The remainder stayed in the skillet and got sprinkled with grated parmesan cheese.

They were really good. Actually, I didn't try Doug's but he said they were great.

I love it when a plan comes together!
