Spicy Pesto Wings Recipes

Steps:

• Cut wings into 3 sections, discard tips (or save them for stock).
• Place sections on well greased baking pan.
• Bake at 375* for 45 minutes, or until done.
• In large pan, mix all remaining ingredients.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, simmer for 20 minutes.
• When wings are done, add to the sauce and mix well to coat all the wings.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Place farfalle pasta in the pot, cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente, and drain.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Mix in the chile paste and chicken. Cook and stir chicken 10 minutes, or until evenly browned and juices run clear.
• Toss the cooked farfalle, pesto, Parmesan cheese, and cilantro into the skillet, and continue cooking just until heated through.

Steps:

• Make the peppered oil: Combine the canola oil, red pepper flakes, garlic and lemon zest in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat to infuse the oil, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool 20 to 30 minutes, then strain the oil and set aside.
• Make the pesto: Combine the basil, pine nuts, parmesan, garlic and lemon juice in a food processor and pulse to make a paste. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the desired consistency is achieved. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make the wings: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the wings on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with about 1/4 cup of the peppered oil; toss. (You can cook them immediately or let them marinate in the refrigerator overnight.) Cook until browned and crispy, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer the wings to a platter, drizzle with the pesto and gently toss. Sprinkle with parmesan and drizzle with more peppered oil.

Steps:

• Reserve seasoning packet from noodles. Cook and drain noodles as directed on package.
• Mix waer, pesto, cornstarch, chili puree and contents of seasoning packet; set aside.
• Heat oil in 12 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; stir-fry 3 to 4 minutes or until no longer pink in center. Add carrot and onions; stir-fry 1 minute.
• Stir in pesto mixture. Boil and stir 1 minute. Add noodles; toss to coat.
