Spicy Chocolate Wings
72 Serving
Bake 30 min
INGREDIENTS:
¼ cup + 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
72 chicken wings, tips discarded and wings separated at the joint
18 cloves garlic, chopped
¾ cup chili powder
1 tablespoons ground allspice
12 cups tomato sauce
18 ounces dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
1 tablespoons salt
¾ cup finely chopped cilantro
DIRECTIONS:
In a large, heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken wings and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Add the garlic, chili powder and allspice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the tomato sauce, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add water, the chocolate, hot sauce and salt and cook, stirring, until the chocolate is melted.
Return the wings to the pan, lower the heat, cover and simmer until the wings are cooked through and the sauce is reduced to a thick glaze, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with the cilantro.
