Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together olive oil, lime juice, honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, ground black pepper, and salt to form the marinade.
Rinse and pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels. Add them to the bowl of marinade.
Toss the wings thoroughly in the marinade until all the pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for the best results.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer on the rack.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning them once halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy. Ensure the chicken is cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Garnish the wings with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve the Soy-Free Alitas de Pollo with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy the savory flavors.
