I'd give it 10 STARS,if I could! YUMMMMMM!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Wow oh WOW! These chicken wings were to die for! My husband and I usually don't eat anything unless it's hot hot spicy,... but we needed to find a recipe that was Mother In Law friendly for the SuperBowl. We tried this recipe and it was just FAB! Eventhough there's no heat, there is a ton of flavor!! We cook with Thai Red Curry paste a lot (yummy on shrimp!!), and so I knew this recipe had to be good. I just didn't know it would be SUPER GREAT!! This was so delicious, that it was the first dish to get completely devoured by all of our guests -- even my mother in law. I started off by boiling the wings for about 15-20 minutes. I dried them off with a papertowel and put on a cookie rack over a baking sheet and put them in the fridge for an hour (Alton Brown's recipe for Wings). Then, I followed Tyler's recipe from there. Just super!! My nephew and his friends loved them so much, that they're requesting I make them again this weekend. LOL This recipe definitely makes me want to try some of Tyler's other ones now. Btw, I think this recipe should be re-named! It was really hard to find, as I only remembered the words "Thai" and "Red Curry" from the recipe tv episode, and neither word is in the recipe title! It took some sleuthing to find the recipe online. I think it should be renamed Thai Red Curry Chicken Wings! :) Read more

A Hit At Super Bowl Party!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Got many requests for the recipe. A nice change up from Buffalo Wings. Doubled the recipe, cooked for an hour, broiled on... high for another 5-10 minutes to help crisp up the chicken. Added about 1/3 to 1/2 cup sriracha to add some heat. The lime juice is a must, gives it an extra layer of flavor. First time cooking with red curry paste. Love the sauce it creates. Will try it to recreate favorite dishes found at Thai restaurants like Pad Prid Pork. Read more

Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Oh man! This is a great recipe. I brined the wings after removing the wing tip and separating the drum from the flat. I baked... them on a wire rack for 40 minutes at 425. I turned the oven off and let them sit for about five minutes while I prepared sesame noodles. The wings came out of the oven beautifully browned and crispy. I used half the butter and added a little sirachi sauce to the curry, soy and honey mixture. Delicious! Read more

Too Sweet
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I like the recipe but the glaze was so sweet and thick. I couldn't figure out how to balance the flvaors with more acid. More... Lime juice or zest didn't seem to help. It also needs more fire. Maybe the chef or someone out there could help me adjust the recipe? Thanks!Read more

The Best Wings Ever
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My dad made these wings last night and my husband rated them the best chicken wings he ever ate. For the record, he has... eaten a ton of wings! Think he added a bit of cayenne for heat and cooked them a bit longer. Would make them again!Read more
