One Click: Chicken Wings

It was the battle of the century. In this corner, in the green silk bathrobe: Ronald (Chicken Lips) Earle! In that corner, in the red curlers: Nicole (Boom-Boom) Parton! It’s the ... Great Chicken Wing Cook-Off! 

(Obvious “bid for sympathy” shot)
Nicole (Boom-Boom) Parton.

The Prize? We won’t mention the prize,
 but it sure looks like chicken feet ...

The contest: Chicken Lips’ (preposterous) belief that his wings could fly higher than Boom-Boom’s. The method: Each of these idiots cooked 4 lb. (1.8 kg) of chicken wings. 



And then they sat down to over-eat. After that, they both got sick. Boom-Boom insisted Chicken Lips’ wings won. Chicken Lips insisted Boom-Boom’s won. After turning the (unmentionable prize) into soup stock, they called it a draw, agreeing they would never, ever do this again. 

We baked our wings in similar dishes - Ron’s clear ...

And Nicole’s tinted blue, to tell their wings apart.


Ron marinated his Honey-Garlic Chicken Wings.

Nicole’s Sticky Ginger Wings needed no marination.

As the sets of wings baked side-by-side, 
the Cook-Off took off!

Which wings won? You decide. These and other Wing 
recipes are findable as One Click: Chicken Wings
 or Chicken Wings: see One Click.
