Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 Habanero pepper, seeded and minced
- 1 cup Fresh ripe mango, cubed
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Erythritol or low-carb sweetener
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings, baking powder, sea salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Toss to coat the wings evenly.
Arrange the wings on the wire rack in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are crispy and cooked through.
While the wings are baking, prepare the mango habanero sauce. In a blender, combine the habanero pepper, cubed mango, apple cider vinegar, lime juice, erythritol, and coconut oil. Blend until smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly.
Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Toss the wings in the mango habanero sauce until they are fully coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy these spicy and sweet low-carb wings!
