Ultimate Game Day Menu: Boneless 'Wings"

buffalo chicken tendersI'm not going to lie to you.

I love greasy, spicy, messy Buffalo wings as much as the next girl, but the operative word in this sentence is "messy." Buffalo wings -- or any type of wings, for that matter -- are messy, with a capital Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, and that's okay if you're sitting at a table in someone else's bar with a stack of wetnaps. However, if you're hosting your own Super Bowl party, some of Frank's Red Hot stain sauce will end up on your couch or carpet. Let's not even talk about how appetizing a pile of chicken bones look on the table.

Boneless wings are the way to go here. You can basically take any recipe for chicken wings, make a slight adjustment for strips of chicken breast, and get a similar taste experience that's just a hell of a lot cleaner. Naturally, my preference is for spicy Buffalo-style boneless wings served with a super thick Blue cheese dip. Celery is just a garnish.

Tip of the Day

It's inevitable- a recipe calls for an herb you know you have in your pantry, or at least you thought so. Next time you're in a pickle, check out this herb substitution chart.
