Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large mango, peeled and diced
- 2 small habanero peppers, seeds removed and finely chopped
- 0.5 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an oven-safe wire rack on top. Lightly oil the rack to prevent sticking.
In a large bowl, combine baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat them evenly with the mixture. This will help achieve crispy skin.
Arrange the coated wings on the wire rack in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning them halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.
While the wings are baking, prepare the mango habanero glaze. In a blender or food processor, combine the diced mango, habanero peppers, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, and coconut oil. Blend until smooth.
Transfer the glaze to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to slightly thicken and meld the flavors. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven. Using a large mixing bowl, toss the hot wings with the mango habanero glaze until they are well coated.
Transfer the glazed wings back onto the wire rack and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes in the oven. This will help set the glaze.
Remove from the oven, allow to rest for a few minutes, and then serve hot. Enjoy these sweet and spicy Soy-Free Mango Habanero Wings with your favorite dipping sauces or sides.
