Spicy Chipotle Wings-Blue Cheese Dip
I love chicken wings, the spicier the better. Chipotle peppers are not only spicy but they also have a deep and smoky flavor that really kicks these wings out of the park. Of course every wing lover knows that no bite is complete without a dip into some creamy blue cheese. Let us know what you think of these hot wings; we recommend you double the recipe to avoid reaching for an empty bowl. ENJOY!
Heat grill to high. Toss wings in a few tablespoons of oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on the grill in single layers and grill until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes per side.
Chipotle Hot Sauce
Whisk together the vinegar, Dijon mustard, chipotle puree, honey, and oil in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Melt butter in a large skillet or a large pot on the grates of the grill. Add the hot sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Whisk in the ancho chile powder and season with salt, to taste.
Add the wings and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes.
Serve with Blue Cheese-Yogurt Dip and celery and carrot sticks if you wish.
