With Superbowl in sight, our Cooked in Translation team has chosen the perfect dish to try out this time!The theme of Cooked in Translation is to create your own adaptation of a recipe and that’s what makes this so exciting!!The recipe for today is CHICKEN WINGS chosen by our host Azlin Bloor of LinsFood!I’ve used Chicken Tenders or Goujons here because the hubby doesn’t like Chicken Wings with bones.I’m sure there are many people out there who prefer boneless wings like my husband does and why not, its more meaty and tastes absolutely delicious.
These make for the perfect little bites to enjoy while watching your favorite game and they couldn’t be easier, since they’re made in a skillet!The sauce is a sweet and spicy combination of honey and Sriracha with some toasted Cumin that gives it so much flavor and the lovely color.Talking about Sriracha, I have to admit I’m addicted to it and add it to everything I cook these days!But wait till you try this recipe, it all comes together on the stovetop and I serve these with a simple Greek Yoghurt Dip spiked with cayenne and cumin!Its hot, its sweet,its just perfect for any game night!

Honey and cumin sound like a match made in heaven, I have never thought to combine the two ingredients and on chicken wings they would be a real winner. Looks delicious, thanks for sharing I will be back 🙂

lol, my husband hates eating things with bones too. I always tell him that he’s super lazy but I secretly love boneless foods too. These look so good – I love the flavour combination in the marinade.

Now that looks good with sweet and spicy flavors. Nobody eats chicken wings in my house, coz there is no meat on it. Chicken tenders is a good idea.

I love these because they’re boneless and the flavors sound so amazing. It may not be the traditional way to eat wings, but what I really want to do is dive into the plate with a pair of chopsticks and start dunking!

I love the sound of these! I actually just posted on my facebook that the price of chicken wings are projected to go up by the Super Bowl. So, these boneless wings will be much more affordable! Love the flavor combination as well, can’t wait to try! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Sincerely,

I’m allowed to eat like 25 of these, right Soni? I love that these aren’t fried and feature a healthier dipping side. I may just make these and have a wing party sans football! =) oooh that sounds like a good idea, lol

Nice! I like it more meaty too, my husband would always choose the ones with bones. What’s Sriracha?
