Once a year my husband goes deer hunting with his dad. They go to Nimrod, Minnesota. When we were all younger my mom would make Curt a pan of lasagna to bring along and about 50 chicken wings. This was to make life easier for them as they went out into the woods to hunt the much wanted game! It is always a great memory for Curt and his dad... eating delicious chicken wings and then heading out into the cold nature, with beauty surrounding them on all sides. Grams probably quit making the wings for him about 5 years ago, it just got to be to much work. This year November, 2010 he decided he would cook up 3 bags of chicken wings for him and his dad, bringing back some nostalgia to the trip. Below you will find grandmas famous recipe for:
CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS
2 pounds chicken wings 3 eggs beaten
1 cup flour (or a little more)
Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup vinegar 3/4 cup catchup
1 teaspoon Accent 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Divide wings in 3 pieces and discard tips. Sprinkle with garlic salt and let stand 10 minutes. Dip each piece in eggs, then in flour, and brown in 1/3 cup hot oil. Place in baking dish. Heat sauce and pour over wings. Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees.
Turn wings several times to coat in sweet and sour sauce.
Curt spent over 4 hours whipping these wings together. When he was done he had a more clear understanding of how much love was in those wings All those years of fresh made wings meant a lot more to him now that he had made them himself!
