Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Wings

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

Mango Chili Sauce

  • ½ cup mango puree or diced ripe mango
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1–2 tbsp chili sauce (adjust to heat preference)
  • 1 tsp lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Garnish

  • Fresh cilantro or green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prep Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness. Toss them evenly in olive oil, salt, and black pepper to season properly.
  2. Bake or Grill: For baking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), arrange the wings on a lined baking sheet, and bake for 35–40 minutes, turning halfway through to cook evenly and achieve a crispy texture. Alternatively, preheat your grill to medium-high heat and grill the wings for 20–25 minutes, turning occasionally until fully cooked and charred in spots.
  3. Make Mango Chili Sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine mango puree, honey, chili sauce, lime juice, and minced garlic. Simmer the mixture gently for 2–3 minutes until it slightly thickens and flavors meld together.
  4. Coat Wings: Place the cooked wings in a large bowl and pour the warm mango chili sauce over them. Toss thoroughly to ensure each wing is evenly coated with the flavorful sauce.
  5. Serve: Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or green onions, and serve hot for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Adjust chili sauce quantity according to your preferred spice level.
  • For extra crispiness, consider broiling the wings for 2-3 minutes after baking.
  • Mango puree can be substituted with fresh ripe mangoes blended until smooth.
  • Leftover wings can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • For grilling, keep a close eye to prevent flare-ups from dripping fat.
