50 States; 50 Meals: New York

There are so many choices for New York.  New York style pizza, bagels, Manhattan clam chowder.  We traveled outside the big apple for our New York chicken dessert but came back for dinner.

What we had for dinner:

Buffalo Chicken Wings
The first wing was made in the Anchor Bar owned by Teresa and Frank Bellissimo

Baked Chicken Wings - The skin gets just a crispy as fried with this recipe.  I didn't make the sauce and bought a bottle of Anchor Bar sauce instead.

Spiedies Pronounced "speedies"
Spiedies were originally from Italy.  They are marinated cubes of meat, traditionally lamb, cooked on a skewer like a kebab.  Pork, chicken, veal, venison, and beef are also used. The meat is marinated and then grilled. The marinade recipe varies, usually involving olive oil, vinegar, and a variety of Italian spices and fresh mint. The meat is then served on Italian bread.  The bread is used to take the meat off of the skewer.I was able to find bottle Spiedie marinade at my grocery store.
