Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings (split into drumettes and flats)
- 1 tbsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp Salt
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 2 tsp Curry powder
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 1 whole Lime (zested and juiced)
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack over it. Spray the rack lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings, baking powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
Place the wings on the prepared baking rack in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other. Bake for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the curry lime butter. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the curry powder and honey, cooking for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lime zest and juice. Mix until everything is well combined. Set aside.
Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the curry lime butter over the wings and toss until they’re evenly coated.
Arrange the wings on a serving platter and garnish with chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor!
