This is an excellent enchilada sauce!! The chocolate does not
make it sweet it adds more of a smokiness to the recipe

  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

Directions

  1. Combine all dry ingredients in a small bowl.
  2. Stirring constantly, slowly add enough of the water to make a thin paste.
  3. Pour into pan and add rest of water.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens.
  5. Stir in tomato sauce.
  6. Use in your favorite enchilada recipe.
  7. The amounts on the ingredients are very flexible. 
  8. For instance, if I am feeding my kids who do not like”spicy”, I will halve the chili powder and double the tomato sauce.

Betty White’s Chicken Wings

Nicole
This chicken is just WONDERFUL!! I don’t like chicken wings because you don’t get enough meat on them. I feel that eating them is a waste of my time. With that being said, I use boneless chicken tenders or boneless chicken breast pieces. This recipe reminds me of Korean BBQ! 

The flavor is excellent!! Be very careful not to overcook the chicken it’s easy to do with this recipe. It has a listed cooking time, but it will vary based on the type of chicken you use, and if it has bones or not also based on your oven. 


Ingredients:
  • 3 lbs. chicken wings or whatever you like
  • 1/2 cup margarine or butter
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
1.      Arrange wings in shallow baking pan.
2.      Heat butter, soy sauce, sugar, water mustard and garlic powder if using, until butter and sugar melt.
3.      Cool; pour over wings and marinate at least 2 hours, turning once or twice.

4.      Drain off half the marinade and bake in same pan at 375F for 60 to 90 minutes, turning occasionally.
