PC Thai Sweet & Spicy Chicken Wings

November 17, 2008 By Lena

To those who know, President’s Choice is absolutely my favourite brand of everything. For some reason, they just keep getting it right. And while they started out as a discount no-name company (with, um, a name), they’ve blossomed into every market imaginable, making more and more goodies for me to love. But my all time favourite must-have-love-them-on-a-tuesday- night-with-superfries-and-a-coke PC product has to be their Thai Sweet & Spicy Chicken Wings.

We discovered these sticky bundles of goodness when they first appeared sometime last year. Hubby was on a mission to find a good frozen wing; I was on a mission to have him find one so he’d stop talking about it. Into the grocery cart the “New!” wings go, and my life, as I know it, has forever changed.

These wings are SERIOUSLY YUMMY. Don’t even think about following the microwave directions ~ the little flappers need to bake in the oven for the recommended time, and then for another 5 minutes to get them all carmelized and crispy.

And the flavour! The wings have just the right amount of heat with a sweet finish to balance it out. While steam won’t blow out of your ears, you may find yourself dousing the fire intermittently. But the thing about spicy food is that it creates a love-hate relationship between your mouth and your senses – your mouth (which is likely burning like hell) is telling you to stop, but everything in you just wants to feel that slow burn for a little while longer. Hence the reason I usually eat more wings than I should…

Now that I’ve whetted your appetite, I should let you know that this product is insanely popular and often sold out at grocery stores carrying PC products (Loblaws, Superstore, No Frills). So if you do stumble upon them, trust me on this one – BUY 2!!!

    Reading your description it’s almost as if I’ve already eaten the wings. Ever consider writing for a food column! :)You’re right that the Thai sweet and spicy wings are often sold out. When that happens I buy their crispy and crunchy southern style wings. Mmmm…
