HOME COOKING: TGI Friday’s Restaurant Best Recipes You Can Cook At Home – TGI Friday’s Buffalo Wings & Baked Potato Skins – Chocolate Malted Cake
From its opening in 1965, TGI Friday’s Restaurant has celebrated its name, “Thank Goodness it’s Friday!”
With great food like their Pecan-Crusted Chicken Salad, Strawberry Fields Salad with Chicken, Cedar Seared Salmon Salad, Jack Daniel’s Pulled Pork Sandwich, Jack Daniel’s Chicken Breast Dinner, Buffalo Wings, not to mention their famous Baked Potato Skins, Friday’s has become a great place for family or romantic get togethers.
In 1973, Newsweek reported, “It all began modestly enough. An unmarried New York City perfume salesman named Alan Stillman decided that the coolest way to meet the stewardesses in his neighborhood would be to buy a broken down beer joint, jazz it up with Tiffany lamps and mod young waiters and christen it – with an eye toward attracting the career crowd – the T.G.I.F. (Thank God It’s Friday) crowd.
“Within one week the police had to ring Friday’s (as it quickly became known) with barricades to handle the nightly hordes of young singles. Hundreds of blatantly imitative emporiums soon opened their doors in scores of major cities – and an industry was born.”
In 1982, Assistant Travel Writer, Judy Williamson, reported that “T.G.I. Friday’s is the grand-daddy of the Singles Bars… places come and places go, but Friday’s endures.”
Then, as Nation’s Restaurant News said, “The 1980′s changed the market, with romantic affairs yielding to family affairs.”
The menu features American recipes and has a special selection of foods marinated with ‘Jack Daniels’ liquor-flavored sauce.

–TGI Friday’s Buffalo Wings–
15 fresh chicken wings (about 3 pounds) Note: If you want to use frozen chicken wings instead, don’t thaw them. cherry tomatoes, as garnish
carrot, cut in sticks,as garnish
celery, cut in sticks,as garnish
blue cheese dressing, for dipping in…
>> Sauce:
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons hot sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons canola oil
2 teaspoons garlic salt
?
1 Line a large broiler pan with a rack with foil in the bottom to catch drippings.
2 Place oven rack to 3-4″ from the heat source and turn on your broiler.
3 Cut each wing into three pieces- a mini drummette, a bent wing portion, and a pointy wing tip- discard the wing tips. 4 Combine sauce ingredients in a large bowl, then dump in chicken and mix to coat well.
5 Put chicken pieces onto the broiler rack, reserving the sauce in the bowl.
6 Broil for 12 minutes, then turn over the chicken and brush with reserved sauce.
7 Broil another 8-10 minutes or until chicken is browned and cooked through.
8 Place cooked chicken in a mound on a platter.
9 Surround the chicken with carrot sticks, celery sticks, cherry tomatoes, and a small dish of blue cheese dressing on the side. 10 Count out 30 frozen, precut wing parts and coat them with the sauce.
11 Bake (instead of broiling) in the lined broiler pan at the temperature suggested on the chicken wing package for the time indicated for that amount of chicken on your package- this will probably be longer than the time for broiling from fresh. 12 Brush with the reserved sauce halfway through the baking time.
