Hot Wings & Spicy Sauce: (Serves 2-4 people)
Wings Cooking and Preparation:
10 chicken wings, cut into separate pieces – discarding the wing tips is optional (but it makes it easier to cook, if the wing tips are separated from the middle wing piece)
4 cups vegetable oil
½ teaspoon salt and black pepper
Instructions:
Heat oil in a large frying pan. Season wings with salt and pepper. Cook wings in batches for about 10 minutes, or until the wings are fully golden brown in color.
Hot Sauce:
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon butter
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons hot sauce (any brand)
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 – 4 tablespoons red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt and black pepper
¼ cup maple syrup
Fresh cilantro
Blue cheese
Instructions:
In a sauce pan, heat oil and butter together. Sauté the garlic and the red pepper flakes together. Remove from the heat and add the rest of the ingredients together and mix together. Be careful as the other liquids may splatter in the hot oil.
For Assembly of the bowl:
Pour some of the sauce on the bottom of a deep bowl (metal or glass). When the wings are cooked, remove from the oil, and instead of straining, place immediately in the bowl with the sauce. Mix the contents together. Add more sauce as desired. Plate with a small container of blue cheese, and sprinkle some fresh cilantro leaves on top of the hot wings.

Fr. Leo,
I was at Gloria Semler’s funeral mass with four of my daughters, and was so blessed by the experience. We are parishioners of St. Anthony’s and went to pray for Mrs. Semler, Fr. Andrew, and his family, but I know that we were the ones most blessed by having been there.
The sacredness of the mass, the blessings, the prayers and most of all watching his mourning family receive the Eucharist together was all such a perfect picture of the completeness of our Catholic Faith. Most especially, partaking of the Eucharist during the funeral mass had such an impact on me. God nourishing the mourning family, consoling them with his flesh and blood…with the Catholic faith. It was all so complete…a word that seems to describe the Catholic faith…complete. Everything is there, all the pieces of the puzzle, put together by God himself to guide, and nourish and protect us during our journey thru this life to the next…anyway, I was so uplifted as we left the mass, feeling so blessed to be Catholic. I have resolved that it should be a part of every students catechesis to attend a funeral mass (especially one so beautifully done) at least once a year. My children had not been to a funeral since their grandfather died 7 years ago, so they did not remember the experience. I was glad they were with me. Actually, to experience even more of that “completeness” of the Catholic faith, I intend to take my children to an ordination, a catholic wedding, and wouldn’t it be wonderful to attend a mass where a nun was taking her final vows!! (I have 5 daughters). We have 7 children, so my kids have experienced lots of baptisms, and first communions, but some of these other sacraments and occasions are not a regular part of our lives…up until now, but they will be from now on!
The Saturday night after Fr. Andrew’s mother died, he was celebrating 5pm mass at our church as usual. In my typical motherly fashion, I felt so bad that he was having to be there for us, his parish, during this time when he was mourning his mother. I even mentioned to him after mass that I hoped they were able to find someone to fill in for him the next day for the Sunday masses so that he could have some time to himself. It wasn’t until later that night when I was praying for him and reflecting on the situation that it occured to me that he was there for his mother. He wanted to be there for mass, as painful as it was, to offer mass for his mother. How beautiful. How blessed she was to have her son, the priest, offering mass for her within hours of her death. What a quiet witness he was to us. His strenght in suffering was a witness to his faith. Quietly spoken thru his actions…I imagine as we get to know him better we will realize this is who Father Andrew is.
Thankyou for your blog, your ministry (I signed up to get your e-mails!!), and your priesthood. We will be praying for you, and we will be watching you on TV on the 9th!!
Blessings,
Mary
