So, remember Thursday and my boneless wings??
Well, today I am one upping those with real deal chicken wings.
I never thought I would actually make real deal chicken wings because to be honest they scare the heck out of me and seem totally intimidating, BUT then I got this amazing new cookbook that I am whole heartedly in love with.
Please tell me you guys know all about Stephanie Le of I am food Blog. If you don’t you have got to go check her out, she is totally inspiring and her recipes are so good. Stephanie just came out with her first cookbook, Easy Gourmet and well, you guys, it has moved to the top of my what seems to be ever-growing cookbook stack. It is full of all kinds of recipes that may seem totally gourmet and unapproachable for a busy weeknight, but… she made them easy. So very easy and so very good.
Her passion for food shines through every single page of the book. Everything from the photos to the little stories that come along with each recipe just make the book that much more personal. You really feel like you are right there cooking along with Stephanie in her kitchen. Which for me personally, is what I look for in good cookbooks.
There are so many recipes I cannot wait to make, I had such a hard time choosing which one to show you guys today. I went back and forth between the Baked Mac & Cheese, Mixed Paella, Homestyle Asian Pasta, Curry Chicken Pot Pie and the Miso Eggplant. Really, I want to make everything though!
Somehow, I went with the hot wings. I think it was more because I was just afraid of them and I wanted a little challenge. Turns out they are the easiest thing ever. Sure the raw chicken is a little nasty to handle (and it made me think of my cute little chickens I love so much down at the barn), but it’s all worth it in the end.
These are so good you guys.
My family kind of went a little nuts for them. I served them as dinner with, wait for it….rice! I mean, of course. But, you could serve them with fries or as an appetizer for parties or especially for game day. Whatever you are feeling.
Also, these are HOT wings. I used the full fourth of a cup of sriracha, but my family can handle spicy, if you prefer things a little milder then take it down to two tablespoons. Other than that, this recipe is a no brainer if you are a chicken wings fan!
Fun Part: I am giving away a copy of Stephanie’s book, Easy Gourmet, so all you guys can get in on these easy, delicious, gourmet recipes. If you want a copy for yourself, just leave a comment below. Maybe tell me what your favorite fall dinner is too. I am all about fall right now!
Nutritional information is only an estimate. The accuracy of the nutritional information for any recipe on this site is not guaranteed.
Good eats and good reads…a happy Sunday for sure!

I look forward to having these wings. Footballs almost here and it’s time to think of Fall foods. One of my favorites to make is Chicken Cacciatore.
My favorite Fall dinner is Salmon:
First I take some orange juice concentrate and put a couple of spoons in a pan
I then add sun dried fruit to the orange juice. I like to use blue berries, strawberries, pineapple and cranberries. This adds blue’s red’s yellow’s and of course orange to the meal. Heat that up for later.
Next I make some potato pancakes in a non-stick pan. Brown one side and turn over and turn down the heat because you will not need to turn again.
Then I either grill my salmon or pan fry the salmon. If I grill I also add some asparagus on the grill.
Now it’s time to put it all together. Put your potato pancakes on each plate. Put the salmon right on top of the potato pancakes and add the warmed up orange juice with sun dried fruit on top and then put the grilled asparagus on the plate too. It’s almost too pretty to eat. The blue, red, yellow, orange and green on your plate. ENJOY
made these tonight , they are to die for, thank you

Love this recipe. I make a butternut squash soup with coconut milk and Granny Smith Apple. Delish. I would love the book.
Looking forward to making the Hot Wings for my Superbowl Sunday eats. Looks easy and appears to not take up too much pregame time.
Pork loin on the grill- marinated with wine and garlic, onion & herb coating on top!
Just about anything done up in Lodge is great – cornbread, meatloaf, gingerbread but I love buttercup squash and seasoned up well with Vermont Pure Maple Syrup.
I caught the food craze as well at a very young age of around 6. I was the one helping my mother in the kitchen while my twin sister and older brother just had no interest. I was hooked. I have a huge passion for cooking and am happy to see this same passion in you. I have to say while going through your recipes, they look amazing!
After many many wings I have cooked over the years these look delicious and will be trying them out this weekend.
Great blog!
