METRIC CONVERSION CHARTS

Grilled Buffalo Wings

Here’s a real crowd-pleaser.We made the tangy blue-cheese dipping sauce with reduced-fat mayonnaise, cutting calories but not the great taste.

PREP: 20 MINUTES GRILL: 25 TO 27 MINUTES MAKES 8 APPETIZER SERVINGS

BLUE-CHEESE DIPPING SAUCE

1 container (8 ounces) sour cream (about ¾ cup)

4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 1 cup)

¾ cup reduced-fat mayonnaise

1 green onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons cider vinegar

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

¼ teaspoon salt

BUFFALO WINGS

4 pounds medium chicken wings (about 24)

¾ cup cayenne pepper sauce celery and carrot sticks

1. Prepare dipping sauce: In small bowl, with wire whisk, mix sour cream, blue cheese, mayonnaise, green onion, vinegar, Worcestershire, and salt until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use or up to 3 days. Makes about 2 cups.

2. Prepare outdoor grill for covered direct grilling over medium heat.

3. Meanwhile, prepare wings: Separate wings at joints; refrigerate tips for another use. Place wings on hot rack over medium heat. Cover grill and cook wings, turning occasionally, until browned, about 20 minutes. Brush wings generously with some cayenne pepper sauce and grill, brushing with remaining sauce and turning frequently, until glazed and juices run clear when thickest part of wing is pierced with tip of knife, 5 to 7 minutes longer. Serve wings with dipping sauce and celery and carrot sticks.

Each serving wings:About 300 calories, 27g protein, 1g carbohydrate, 20g total fat (6g saturated), 86mg cholesterol, 675mg sodium.

Each tablespoon sauce:About 45 calories, 1g protein, 1g carbohydrate, 4g total fat (2g saturated), 8mg cholesterol, 105mg sodium.

TIP: Cayenne pepper sauce is a milder variety of hot pepper sauce that adds tang and flavor, not just heat. It can be found in the condiment section, near the ketchup, in the supermarket.

All-American BBQ Chicken

Try our sweet and spicy sauce on pork spareribs, too. If you’d prefer, substitute chicken thighs or bone-in breasts for the whole chickens. Wait until the chicken has cooked for twenty minutes before brushing it with sauce, and it will become
