Salt and Pepper Wings, No Garlic and Onion

I posted about a friend who was coming over who could not have garlic or onions. He could have oils infused with them. I made the Piri Piri wings but wanted more than one variety so I made salt and pepper wings. I normally use chopped garlic and green onions but had to modify.

I tossed 12 wing segments in 15 ml (1 tablespoon) of the garlic oil I made for the Piri Piri wings. Then I mixed 8 ml (1 1/2 teaspoon) black pepper and 4 ml (3/4 teaspoon) kosher salt together and tossed the wings in that mixture.

I put them in the pellet smoker at 350 F. I cooked for 25 minutes on one side and then flipped and cooked for 25 minutes more.

The Verdict

These were very good with a nice salt/pepper ratio and a tasty crisp skin. However, they aren't as good as my regular Piri Piri wings. The garlic onion mixture I toss them in at the end really adds something.

That being said, these were so incredibly easy they were great for serving at a busy dinner party and they disappeared quickly!

Looks tasty Disco! Sometimes simple is best!

I love salt and pepper prawns. Wish I could get whole prawns here.

I would take a plate of those in an instant!

A lot of meats are about perfect just with salt and pepper!

Thanks, Case. There was a Chinese (real not tourist) restaurant in Vancouver that used to do prawns in the shell crusted in coarse salt. I had forgotten about those. Thanks for the reminder, I must try and recreate them.

Thanks, Cranky. The guests seemed to feel the same way as they reached for more!

I like Montreal seasoning too. It wasn't an option here due to the high garlic content though.
