Famous Chicken Wings

This recipe comes from my dad's mom, Grandma Sharron. They are surely famous in our family. My mom made them for us while we were growing up. This was the first time I had made them on my own. They turned out pretty yummy. This is the only recipe that I have where I fry something. I normally dont like fried food.

Eric's Hot Wings

The first thing that my husband said when I took a picture of his wings the other night was.."Sweet, I made the blog". These were a hit at our BYU Football party.

• 3 1/2 pounds chicken wings, tips discarded
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (add more if you can stand it)
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup honey
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1/2 cup hot sauce

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil grate.
2. Wash the wings well and pat dry with paper towel. Season the meat with cayenne, salt, and pepper.
3. Cook the chicken wings on preheated grill until cooked through and juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the wings. Brush the wings liberally using 1/2 cup of honey while they are cooking.
4. Melt the butter, pour into a large bowl and mix in the remaining 1/2 cup of honey and hot sauce. Remove the wings from the grill and immediately toss them in the hot honey butter sauce to coat. Serve the wings 'wet' or return them to the grill for 1 minute per side to set the sauce.

Cream Cheese Bacon Chicken

My husband loves Chicken Cordon Blue, so I figured I would try this next recipe that I found at Sunday Baker.

Cream Cheese Bacon Chicken
4 chicken breasts
1/2 block soft cream cheese
fresh chives
bacon strips (about 10)
salt to taste
2-4 T. butter

Cream Sauce
1/2 c. water
3T. butter
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 c. heavy cream
1 clove minced garlic
1/2 c. shredded Parmesan
salt and pepper to taste
1 T. cornstarch

Put the chicken into a gallon-size Ziploc and pound to about 1/8" thickness:



Mix together the chopped chives (about 2 T.) and the soft cream cheese. Spread about a T. or so onto each flattened chicken breast. Top with a few small pats of butter:



Roll up the chicken and wrap a couple of bacon slices around. Secure with a toothpick:


Lay the rolls in a greased baking dish and sprinkle with a dash of salt. Put into a 375 degree oven for about an hour, or until juices run clear, uncovered. (you can broil the last few minutes if you want the bacon really crisp).


While that's baking, it's time to make the sauce. In a saucepan, over medium heat, add the butter, water and chicken bouillon cubes. Heat to a boil, dissolving the cubes. Add the heavy cream, bringing back to a soft boil for about 1 minute. Add the cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. If you would like your sauce thick, in a small bowl mix together 1 T. cornstarch with 4 T. hot water. Add this mixture to the cream mixture, whisking over the heat. It will immediately start to thicken. Remove from heat.


When the chicken is done, serve with the delicious sauce poured over the top. I also serve linguine pasta on the side with the sauce. Ohhh, so good!

Pot Roast

Ingredients:
1 Beef Roast(2-5 lbs) (I usually buy what is on sale)
1 packet onion soup mix
1-2 cans cream of mushroom soup(1 if smaller roast, 2 if larger)
Montreal Steak Seasoning (I make it without this sometimes, and it still works)

Directions:
Season Roast with steak seasoning (or salt and pepper), sprinkle and pat onion soup mix in. Pour Cream of Mushroom Soup mix on top. Cook for 8 hours on low in the crockpot. I have found that if I try cooking it for 6 hours, that it is usually done, but now nearly as tender. The longer you cook it, the better it gets.
