Sun-dried Tomato Wings

Sun-dried Tomato Wings

• 1/2 Cup Soaked Sun-dried Tomatoes -- drained *see note
• 2 Cloves Garlic
• 1/8 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
• 1/8 Teaspoon Onion Powder
• 1/8 Teaspoon Salt
• 1/8 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
• 1 Teaspoon Chopped Fresh Basil
• 1 Cup Mayonnaise
• 20 Trimmed And Separated Wings
• 1/4 Cup Olive Oil
• 1 Dash Salt And Pepper

  In a food processor, blend the tomatoes, garlic, and spices until they're chopped fine. Add the mayonnaise and continue blending until a smooth paste forms. Transfer to a large mixing bowl with a rubber spatula. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 375. Spread the wings evenly on a buttered 1 to 2 inch deep baking dish. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until crispy, brown, and cooked through. Remove from the oven and drain off excess oil. Let the wings cool for 5 minutes. Toss the wings in the bowl with the sun-dried tomato mixture, coating them thoroughly.

  NOTES :
  To soak tomatoes, pour enough water over them to cover and let them stand for 10 minutes.
