For this year’s Super Bowl, skip those sad chips and dip or predictable Bufalo wings and go for full flavor. Here are five Super Bowl party appetizers ideas from Chef Anthony Armstrong, executive chef at the Wyndham Indianapolis West hotel and Nicolini’s Italian Restaurant that are bound to please your Super Bowl party guests.
Spicy Meatballs
Hold off on the Swedish style meatballs and add zing with Andouille sausage and a spicy marinara for these filling meatballs. Add petite dinner rolls to create meatballs sliders as a second option.
Bacon Wrapped Jumbo Shrimp with Asian BBQ Sauce
For ease of preparation, use a store-bought barbecue sauce and add hoisin, soy and teriyaki sauces with fresh ginger to give it an East meets West flair. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
Open Faced Beef Fajitas
Corn tortilla chips act as the base for these “one-biters.” Top with julienne beef strips, caramelized onions and pepper and a cilantro sour cream.
Goat Cheese, Spinach and Artichoke Dip with Grilled Pita Chips
This warm dip is great for the vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Grilled pita bread finished with toasted spices act as a great carrier of this crowd-pleasing dip. Still no double dipping, please.
Oven Roasted Herb Chicken Wings with Lemon Garlic Chimichurri
Every party needs chicken wings, and crispy skin, oven roasted wings with the lemon garlic chimichurri sauce will complement your favorite adult beverage every time.
