Barbecue Turkey Wings Over Cheesy Rice and Beans
Nominated by wife Patricia Ellman:
"Daniel puts his whole heart into his cooking and baking. All of his meals are delicious. One of my favorites is sirloin roast served with a tossed salad, baked potato, au jus for dipping, and for dessert, Daniel's Jell-O supreme. He also bakes a dark pumpernickel bread to go along with Philadelphia Cream Cheese."
Ellman whipped up this barbecue turkey wings and cheesy rice and beans dish as an easy-to-make supper for anyone on a budget. "It will easily feed a family, and it's very economical, " he said.
Hands on time: 30 minutes Total time: 1 hour and 20 minutes Serves: 4
Ingredients:
-
4 turkey wings, tips removed
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Ground black pepper
Paprika
1 cup uncooked white rice
1 (16-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup (or more) barbecue sauce
4 slices American cheese, sliced into thirds
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Arrange the turkey wings on a wire rack set inside a roasting pan. Brush both sides of the wings with vegetable oil, then sprinkle each side generously with garlic powder and onion powder. Season both sides lightly with black pepper and paprika. Add 1 1/2 cups water to the bottom of the pan. Roast the wings for 30 minutes, then turn with tongs and roast on the other side for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the rice according to package directions. When the rice is cooked, stir in the beans and season with garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
When the wings are cooked on both sides, remove from oven. Turn the oven to broil. Brush both sides of the wings generously with barbecue sauce. Turn the wings ugly side up, and broil about 6 inches from the heat for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.
Spread the rice-and-beans mixture in a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish. Top with the American cheese pieces. Arrange the turkey wings over the rice, pretty side up. Return to the oven and broil for 3 to 5 more minutes, until the wings are lightly browned and the cheese is melted.

Notes:
Ordinary turkey wings get the royal barbecue treatment in this easy-to-make dinner. And you can do it all indoors with your stovetop, oven and broiler.
