Buffalo Chicken Wings w/ Oven-Roasted Fingerling Potato Fries


Dinner Tonight: Buffalo Chicken Wings w/ Oven-Roasted Fingerling Potato Fries



I wasn't sure on what I was going to have for dinner so I went to the grocery to see what I could find. I went to Walmart and decided to give Tyson Buffalo Style Wings a try. It had been a long time since I had wings and it sounded good. I also picked up some Fingerling Potatoes. It was the first time I had Tyson Buffalo Style Wings, they also had 2 other kinds that I'll be giving a try. I baked the wings on 425 degrees for 37 minutes. They came out fantastic! The wings were very good size wings nice and meaty with great Buffalo Sauce flavor. I served them with a side of Litehouse Chunky Bleu Cheese Dip.

I also had Fingerling Potatoes that I quartered into fries. I seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn, Rosemary, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil. You can season these with your favorite spices and herbs. After quartering the potatoes I put them in a bowl and added Extra Virgin Olive Oil tossing them in the bowl till all the potatoes were coated with the Olive Oil. Then I seasoned them with the Salt, Pepper, and Rosemary and once again tossing them in the bowl until they were all seasoned. I baked them on a foil lined cookie sheet along side the Wings, both came out at the same time about 35 minutes. i just love the flavor of Fingerling Potatoes! They came out perfect browned, a little crisp, and well seasoned. The Rosemary goes great with Potatoes. I left the product description of the Tyson Wings and the recipe for the Potatoes at the end of the post. For dessert another bowl of Breyer's Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream topped with those South Carolina Peaches!



Oven-Roasted Fingerling Potato Fries

Fingerling Potatoes
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Sea Salt
Pepper
Rosemary

1.) Thoroughly clean and scrub the potatoes.

2.) Cut the potatoes in half. This will allow the fingerlings to cook faster and also gives them a nice crisp.

3.) Toss in olive oil. I used about 2 tablespoons, but this will vary by how many potatoes you use. Just use enough oil to give the potatoes a nice coat.

4.) Put on a baking sheet (I line mine with tin foil to cut down on clean-up).

5.) Season with dry ingredients, or a combination of seasonings you like.

6.) Cook in the oven for 25-35 minutes at 450 degrees. The potatoes should be tender in the middle when done.
