DEVILED EGGS

Our Easter Traditional Dish

DEVILED EGGS

For Easter, we love taking the boiled eggs that have been dyed and colored by the kids and turning them into our favorite recipe “Deviled Eggs.” We love Deviled eggs but sometimes the regular deviled eggs during Easter can get boring. So we came up with four delicious ways to add a little spice to our original recipe.

Deviled Eggs

Ingredients

6 hard boiled eggs

2 cups of Miracle Whip or Mayo

1 tsp garlic powder

Paprika for dusting.

½ tsp of salt and pepper

Directions

Cut the eggs in half length wise. Remove the yolks from the eggs and place them in a bowl. With a potato masher, mash the eggs yolks. In the bowl with the egg yolks add the Miracle whip/Mayo, ham, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix the all the ingredients together. With a plastic bag with a hole in a corner or in a piping bag, fill all 12 halves with the filling. Dust the filled halves with the Paprika.

To jazz up this recipe here are some options.

1. Chipotle deviled Eggs

· In place of 2 cups of miracle whip you can do 1 cup of Miracle Whip and 1 cup of Chipotle Mayo.

2. Ham or Turkey Deviled Eggs

· You can add diced ham or Turkey to the mix.

3. Spicy Deviled Eggs

· To spice this up we dust with Cayenne pepper and add diced jalapeños.

4. Cheesy deviled eggs.

· We add liquid cheese to the mix and then dust with paprika and finely shredded cheese.

CWP Fried Chicken

Fried Chicken

 

Ingredients

10-15 whole chicken wings

3 cups of flour

2 tsp of black pepper

¾ cup seasoning salt

3 tbsp Garlic powder

3 tbsp of garlic salt

2 eggs

1 cup of milk

2tsp of hot sauce

1tbsp of lemon juice

¼ cup of bread crumbs

¼ cup of Balsamic vinegar

Hardware

2 large bowls

Cookie sheet covered in foil

Large cutting board.

Directions

Put the chicken, the lemon juice, the vinegar, the hot sauce, and 1 tbsp of garlic into a large freezer storage bag. Marinate the chicken for 30 minutes in the bag. While the chicken is marinating, mix the flour, the rest of the garlic powder, seasoning salt, garlic salt, the bread crumbs and the black pepper in a large bowl. In another bowl mix the eggs and the milk. When the chicken is done marinating, dip each piece into the flour mixture. Make sure each piece is covered in flour. After that dip each piece into the egg mixture. Make sure each piece is completely covered. Next the chicken goes back into the flour. When that process is done let the chicken hang out on the cutting board. This will help the flour and the egg to set on the chicken and not fall off in the deep fryer. In this time, heat the deep fryer to the chicken setting or 250 degrees F. When the grease is hot and ready, fry the chicken for 10 minutes, 5 pieces at a time. After frying, use the cookie sheet and bake the chicken in the oven on 350 degrees F for 10 more minutes.

Let sit for 2 minutes and serve.
