Kent’s Zesty Cheater Wings

ZestyCheaterWings
 
Zesty Cheater Wings – Simple ingredients for a ZESTY taste. So why do I call them “Cheater Wings” Because this recipe is so easy it’s almost like cheating. Put a twist on chicken marinated in Italian dressing with a few quick and easy ingredient additions.
 
This recipe is actually one of the first recipes I added to my website, www.thedeckchef.com, way back in 2005! I even included a version in my new book titled Great American Grilling. It’s gone through a few tweaks but the concept is the same! Simple, a few ingredients, grill, and eat. You can’t beat that.
 
The Good news is that this week we celebrate NATIONAL CHICKEN WING DAY! So, grab some wings, fire up the grill, and get ready for some Zesty Cheater Wings!
Kent’s Zesty Cheater Wings.
Ingredients:
12 to 24 mini wings and drums
Zesty Italian dressing
Barbecue sauce
Minced green pepper
Minced onion
Parsley flakes
Directions:
Marinate the chicken in equal parts of Italian dressing and barbecue sauce. Toss in some hot sauce and spoon in a few tablespoons of minced peppers, onions and some dried parsley flakes. Cover, chill for a couple of hours and grill until juices run clear.
 
My only tip is that if you have time for an overnight soak then take advantage of it – or at least for several hours before tossing these wings on the grill! HAPPY NATIONAL CHICKEN WING DAY!!
