Easy Picnic Ideas: Habanero Chicken Wings Recipe

Habanero Wings are sweet and spicy chicken wings with crispy skins. They are one of my favorite picnic foods and always a crowd-pleaser.

Servings: 4
Course: Others

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 ½ tablespoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 ½ cups mango chunks
  • 3 habanero peppers stems removed and seeded
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 3 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1/4 cup honey

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Mix together the baking powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Mix the chicken wings with the seasoning mixture. Then place the seasoned wings on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake for about 30 minutes until slightly crispy, flipping the wings halfway through using kitchen tongs.
  5. While the wings are baking, make the mango habanero sauce. Add the mango chunks, habaneros, garlic, vinegar and lime juice to a blender. Blend until smooth.
  6. Add the mango habanero sauce and honey to a small saucepan. Place onto medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring to help the honey dissolve. Let it bubble for 3-4 minutes and then remove from the heat.
  7. Remove the wings from the oven. Brush each wing with the mango habanero sauce to coat completely.
  8. Return to the oven to bake for 10 more minutes more or slightly caramelized. Remove from the oven. Serve and enjoy!
