LEMONY ROASTED CHICKEN WINGS

This is from David Tanis in The New York Times cooking e-newsletter. David wrote, “These meaty out-of-the-ordinary roasted wings are infused with lots of lemon, garlic and rosemary, then roasted on a bed of fingerling potatoes. Use a large roasting pan that's at least 3 inches deep, or a big earthenware gratin dish, or a couple of Pyrex lasagna pans side by side. The lemony chicken and potatoes are delicious hot and crisp, but just as good at cool room temperature.”

Yield: 6 to 8 servings; Time: About 1 1/2 hours.

This was featured in “Lemony Chicken Wings, Soaring Above the Rest”, and can be viewed online here.

Ingredients

2 pounds very small potatoes, such as fingerlings, whole, or use medium-size yellow-fleshed potatoes, cut in halves or wedges)

3 pounds chicken wings, preferably drumettes

Salt and pepper

Red pepper flakes, to taste

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

6 small lemons, cut into 1/4-inch thick half-moon slices

6 large rosemary sprigs, leaves stripped

8 garlic cloves, minced, or 1/2 cup chopped green garlic shoots

1 cup dry white or rosé wine

Pinch of dried oregano (optional)

Preparation

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Rinse potatoes with lukewarm water and pat dry.

Spread chicken wings out on a baking sheet or cutting board in a single layer. Season both sides of wings generously with salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle with red-pepper flakes as desired.

Transfer seasoned wings to a large bowl. Add olive oil, lemon slices, rosemary and garlic and toss well with (plastic-gloved) hands so everything is evenly coated.

Place potatoes on the bottom of a roasting pan. Arrange seasoned wings over potatoes in a single layer. Add wine and cover pan tightly with foil.

Bake, covered, for about 45 minutes, until potatoes are done. Remove foil and return the pan to the oven and bake about 20 minutes more, until wings are nicely browned. Using tongs, turn wings over and bake for another 20 minutes to brown the wings’ other side. Sprinkle with dried oregano, and serve hot or at room temperature.

BUFFALO CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

This tasty recipe is from the Food Network Kitchen, and begins, “Rotisserie chicken is the time-saving secret to this mash-up of two crowd-pleasing foods. Stuff corn tortillas with a cheesy buffalo filling and bake until melted for an easy weeknight meal or game day snack that's ready in a half hour.”

Total Time: 30 minutes; Active Time: 15 minutes; Yield: 4 to 6 servings; Level: Easy

Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the pan

4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

2 cups shredded Cheddar

1 cup hot sauce, plus more for serving, such as Frank's

1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

16 corn tortillas

2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese

2 tablespoons blue cheese dressing

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.

Mix the chicken, cream cheese, 1 cup of the Cheddar, 1/3 cup of the hot sauce, white parts of the scallions and cumin in a large bowl until well combined. Stir together the butter, remaining 2/3 cup hot sauce and 3 tablespoons water in a medium bowl.

Microwave the tortillas in batches until warm, softened and foldable, about 30 seconds. Keep warm between damp paper towels.

Spoon a portion of the chicken mixture down the middle of each tortilla and roll up. Place them side by side, seam-side down, in the prepared pan. Pour the hot sauce mixture over the tortillas. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup Cheddar and the blue cheese and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 15 to 17 minutes.

Drizzle the blue cheese dressing over the enchiladas and sprinkle with the scallion greens. Serve with more hot sauce.
