Ingredients
FOR THE WINGS
- 2 pounds chicken wings separated and wing tips removed
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning blend
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
FOR THE MANGO HABANERO SAUCE
- 1 ripe mango peeled and chopped
- 6 habanero peppers chopped (use more or fewer, as desired)
- 3-4 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 teaspoon cayenne
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- Juice from 1 small lime
- Pinch of salt
- ¼ cup honey
Instructions
- Pat the wings as dry as you can get them. This will help with the crispiness.
- Set the wings into a large bowl and season with baking powder, Cajun seasonings, flour, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Toss to get them nice and coated. The baking powder helps with the crispiness.
- Heat oven to 250 degrees. Set the wings onto a lightly oiled baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
- Increase oven heat to 425 degrees and bake another 30 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through and the skins are nice and crispy.
- For the sauce, add the mango, habaneros, garlic, cayenne, vinegar, lime juice and a pinch of salt to a food processor. Process until nice and smooth.
- Pour the sauce into a sauce pan with the honey and heat to medium-low, stirring frequently, until the sauce is warmed and the honey is incorporated, about 5 minutes or so.
- Remove from heat and toss with the finished wings. Enjoy!
Notes
- Heat Factor: Medium-Hot. You'll get some good heat with the habanero peppers, though the sweetness of the mango tempers it a bit.
