Made these the other night, and I can see this definitely making it into the regular rotation.

Sweet and Spicy Thai Chicken Wings

Wings

3 lbs chicken wings

1 Tbsp baking powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp five spice powder

Dry chicken wings w paper towels. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss with your hands to ensure seasonings are well distributed. Place on a wire rack set into a baking sheet — I wrap the sheet in aluminum foil before setting in the wire rack.

Bake at 425F for 20 minutes; flip wings over and bake for 20 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. If not browned / crispy enough for your liking, place under broiler for a few minutes.

Place wings in large bowl and toss with sauce (recipe below). Top with thinly sliced scallions (not pictured b/c I didn't have any 🤓)

Sauce

2 Tbsp tamari / coconut aminos

1 Tbsp fish sauce (or 1 add'l Tbsp tamari / aminos)

1/4 cup brown sugar substitute

3 Tbsp apple cider vingear

3 Tbsp sugar-free ketchup (I make my own)

2 Tbsp butter, cut into small pieces

1 Tbsp sriracha

1 Tbsp grated ginger root

Combine all ingredients in small sauce pan and warm over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. I decided to add 1/8 tsp of xanthan gum b/c my homemade ketchup is not as thick as most other ketchups.

Roasted Broccoli w/ Pork Rind Gremolata

2 heads broccoli

3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Salt / pepper (to taste)

1/2 cup crushed pork rinds

2 cloves garlic, minced

Zest / juice of 1 lemon

Slice broccoli into florets, toss with 2 Tbsp olive oil, and s/p — roast in 400F oven for 15 minutes, tossing once — if you like your broccoli on the "crispier" side, use convection function (instead of regular bake function).

While broccoli is roasting, saute garlic in 1 Tbsp olive oil over medium-low heat. Add pork rinds and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from heat, add lemon zest and juice — place roasted broccoli in large bowl and pour in pork rind gremolata — toss to combine.
