Nopalitos Wings Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally until they begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Stir in the nopalitos, onion, tomato, and jalapeno. Season to taste with salt, and continue cooking and stirring until the onion has softened and turned translucent, and the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients (except the wings) in a blender or a food processor and puree until it has reached a sauce like consistency.
• Set some marinade aside (or make extra) to brush on while grilling.
• Place chicken wings and marinade in a large sealable bag and try to get all the air out.
• Refrigerate for 4-24 hours, depending on how strong you want the flavor to be.
• Remove the chicken wings from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 25-30 minutes while heating the grill.
• Grill over medium-high heat, flipping frequently and brushing with the marinade for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through. During the last 5 minutes of grilling do not brush on any more marinade to make sure all the juices cook through.
