One of my favorite appetizers to serve is Chicken Wings. I like mine coated with Garlic and Parmesan, as those ingredients pack so much flavor. They are perfect to serve for game day, or enjoying while the main meal is still on the grill or smoker. I also will show you how to make a homemade Blue Cheese sauce for dipping.
Sous Vide cooking the Chicken Wings guarantees that the Wings will be perfectly cooked, while still remaining juicy and flavorful. Simply fry in oil for a few minutes after the Sous Vide bath, and toss in the Garlic Parmesan mixture, and you will have a big hit with your family and friends.
Ingredients:
4-5 pounds of Chicken Wings
1-2 ounces of fresh grated Parmesan Cheese
3-4 Tablespoons of freshly chopped Parsley
3-4 cloves of freshly chopped Garlic
6 Tablespoons melted Butter
Kosher Salt
Blue Cheese Dressing
3-4 ounces Fresh Blue Cheese Crumbles
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1/3 cup Mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
Juice from 1/2 Lemon
Salt and Pepper to taste
Start by preheating your Sous Vide bath to 165 degrees. Next apply some Kosher Salt to your Chicken Wings. Set them aside while you prepare the Garlic Parmesan mixture and the Blue Cheese dressing.
Grate the Parmesan Cheese and place into a mixing bowl. Add the chopped Garlic and chopped Parsley. Mix well and cover, then place in your refrigerator.
Next place the Blue Cheese into a mixing bowl. Make sure to mash the bigger pieces of Blue Cheese into smaller pieces. Add the Sour Cream, Mayonnaise, Olive Oil and Dijon Mustard. Then add the juice from half a Lemon. Mix well. Add Salt and Pepper to taste. Cover and place in your refrigerator.
Now place the Chicken Wings into Freezer bags. Sous Vide cook them at 165 degrees for 1 to 1.5 hours. If the Wings are still a bit frozen, go for a bit longer cooking time.
When the Wings are done remove from the bags and dry off completely with paper towels. You could even place them on a wire rack and allow to dry out overnight in your refrigerator. Set aside while you heat some cooking oil to 375-400 degrees.
Fry the Wings in the oil for 2-3 minutes. When the skin looks brown and crispy remove them and place on paper towels to dry off. Add the melted Butter to the Garlic Parmesan mixture and mix well. Toss the Wings in the mixture until they are well coated. Serve with the Blue Cheese Dressing and enjoy!
