poultry essentials: instant pot to skillet wings

How To Make poultry essentials: instant pot to skillet wings

• 
  Step 1
  PREP/PREPARE
• 
  Step 2
  You will need an Instant Pot/pressure cooker and a good-sized skillet to make this recipe.
• 
  Step 3
  Parts is Parts and Pieces is Pieces :-) The three parts of a chicken wing are the drumette, the wingette, and the wing tip. I usually separate the three parts and freeze the wing tips, when you have enough, use them to make stocks and soups… Brilliant. So, when I say 12 chicken wings, I am actually using six whole wings and by cutting them apart produce 12 pieces. In most cases I would consider that a serving for one person.
• 
  Step 4
  Serving Sauces Everyone has their own favorite dipping or tossing sauce for chicken wings. Some can be complicated or as simple as a bowl of ranch dressing. For this recipe, I tossed the wings with some hot sauce (I prefer Frank’s), a sprinkle or two of salt, and served them as is. Nothing like eating chicken wings at four in the morning. I call that livin’ large.
• 
  Step 5
  Oil & Butter I like to use grapeseed oil for its high smoke point, but any non-flavored oil will work just fine. As for butter, use the sweet, unsalted variety.
• 
  Step 6
  Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 
  Step 7
  Place the wings (frozen or thawed) into the Instant Pot/pressure cooker, along with the stock and water.
• 
  Step 8
  Cover and set to high. • Frozen 10 minutes. • Thawed 8 minutes. Allow a cooldown of 5 minutes, then release any remaining pressure.
• 
  Step 9
  Place the wings on a paper towel, then discard the liquid in the pot.
• 
  Step 10
  Add a glug of oil and about a tablespoon or so of butter into a pan over medium-high heat.
• 
  Step 11
  Add the wings and let them sit in the hot pan for about 1 – 2 minutes.
• 
  Step 12
  Then start tossing them in the pan, I like to add a bit of hot sauce while they are crisping, but that is up to you.
• 
  Step 13
  Keep tossing until the wings begin crisping, about an additional 5 – 7 minutes.
• 
  Step 14
  PLATE/PRESENT
• 
  Step 15
  Serve with your favorite dipping sauce or eat just as is. Enjoy.
• 
  Step 16
  Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
