Description
Sweet and smoky Honey Chipotle Chicken Wings that are perfect for any gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds Chicken Wings
- 1/3 cup Honey
- 2–3 Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- Juice of 1 Lime
- 1 tablespoon Paprika
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep the Oven or Grill: Preheat your oven to 425°F or prepare your outdoor grill for indirect cooking.
- Make the Marinade: In a bowl, mix together honey, minced chipotle peppers, garlic, lime juice, paprika, salt, and pepper until combined.
- Coat the Wings: Place the chicken wings in a large bowl and pour the marinade over them. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
- Marinate: Let the wings marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the fridge) for the flavors to meld.
- Cook the Wings: Arrange the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for baking or directly on the grill using indirect heat. Bake or grill for about 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Glaze for Extra Flavor: For the last 10 minutes of cooking, brush additional honey-chipotle marinade on the wings for that glossy finish.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once they’re perfectly cooked and have a lovely char, serve with fresh lime wedges and your favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
For extra crispy wings, try broiling them for the last few minutes. Keep a watchful eye!
