Ingredients
- 500 g chicken wings
- 2 tbsp oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 cloves garlic Minced
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper Adjust to taste
- salt To taste
- black pepper To taste
- Coriander
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the vegetable oil, soy sauce, ketchup, honey, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix well to make the marinade.
- Place the chicken wings in a large resealable plastic bag or a bowl. Pour the marinade over the wings, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. For best results, marinate for 3-4 hours.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove the chicken wings from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting.
- Place the chicken wings on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have a nice char. During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the wings with the reserved marinade to add extra flavour.
- Once the chicken wings are cooked, transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves for a burst of freshness.
- Serve the barbecued chicken wings hot as an appetizer or as part of a delicious meal. They pair wonderfully with coleslaw, grilled corn, or your favourite dipping sauce.
