Chili Lime Chicken Wings,

INGREDIENTS:

5 pounds chicken wings
1 cup lime juice
2 -3 green chilies, diced
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons dried oregano, crumbled
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon pepper
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
4 limes, cut in wedges

PREPARATION:

Puree chilies in food processor (or dice really small). Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. If required, add more cayenne to your desired heat level.
Split the wings to make drumettes. Use a nice sharp knife to find the joint and cut through to avoid splitting the bone. Marinade for 2-8 hours (the longer you leave it in the marinade, the hotter they will be).
Grill the chili lime chicken wings at medium-high heat (If you're using a charcoal grill, spray gently with water to keep heat at medium intensity). Turn and baste often with marinade.
Serve hot off the grill.

Sausage and Apple Slaw Muffin

Ingredients

6 debbie&andrew’s perfect pork sausages
4 large English muffins (use gluten free option if preferred, Udi's GF White Rolls)
4 tablespoons mango chutney




For the slaw:

¼ head of white cabbage, sliced super thin
1 granny smith apple, cored and julienned
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon mayonnaise (use Dairy Free option if preferred)
2 tablespoon soured cream (use Dairy Free option if preferred)
½ teaspoon curry powder
Salt and pepper
Oil for frying

Method

Remove sausage meat from skins.
Shape into 4 flat equal burger patties, cover with cling film and chill until needed.
Mix the slaw ingredients. Cover until needed.
Heat a frying pan with a dash of oil and add the patties, cooking for two to three minutes each side, and cook through in a hot oven for 5 minutes. Rest on a plate for 5 minutes.
Pull apart the muffins with a fork instead of cutting with a knife and toast to your liking.
To assemble, on one half of a muffin, spoon on a tablespoon of mango chutney, add a patty, then a heaped tablespoon of the slaw and top with the remaining muffin half. Repeat with remaining muffins.
